[Asthma and pregnancy].
About 1% of all pregnant women suffer from asthma. It is important to know how pregnancy may affect the patient's asthma, and how asthma may influence the course of the pregnancy, the foetus, delivery and the child's postnatal status. It is also important to know the influence of drugs on foetus, the delivery and the nursing period. The greatest risk in pregnancy is poorly controlled asthma leading to hypoxemia. The current, well-known drugs for asthma can be used with safety in pregnancy and during the nursing period.
