ABSTRACT
During intrauterine life, the fetus can be exposed to a series of substances ingested by the mother, some of which are
necessary for her health but detrimental to fetus. The noxious effects of such exposure could present immediately after
exposure in the fetus or be manifested at the time of delivery and sometimes weeks after birth. The passage of drugs or
nutrients across the placenta depends on some physicochemicals that have the ability to cross the placenta barrier, and thus
get in contact with the fetus and produce harmful effects. Considering the physicochemical properties of the substances, the
possibility of such compounds to cross the placenta barrier and thence to the fetus can be predicted. Equally, it is important
to consider the characteristics of the newborn as an immature being, different from adults, when carrying out pharmacokinetic
and pharmacodynamic processes. Based on the latter, it is important to know the behavior or characteristics of the fetus and
the newborn in the face of drug management and above all consider the advantages and disadvantages of the use of such
drugs for the care of a being yet in development, as is described in this work.
