VeriMom¿Debo evitar ibuprofen durante el embarazo? | VeriMom
Ibuprofen (CAS 15687-27-1) is an NSAID with human/animal evidence of adverse fetal effects (fetal renal dysfunction/oligohydramnios and premature ductus arteriosus closure) prompting an FDA warning to avoid NSAID use at ≈20 weeks gestation and later; this supports a 'suspected' reproductive hazard (h=2). The mechanism is demonstrated (prostaglandin inhibition → fetal renal/ductus arteriosus effects), so m=2. Topical/cosmetic use yields low but measurable systemic exposure vs oral use, so exposure for topical cosmetic use is low (e=1). Sources: FDA, MotherToBaby/NCBI, ECHA substance information.

- ¿Es ibuprofen seguro durante la lactancia?
- Available clinical guidance and reviews indicate very low transfer of ibuprofen into human milk and no documented infant harm for usual maternal doses; therefore no reproductive/breastfeeding hazard is indicated (h=0, m=0). Milk transfer is measurable but low, so e=1. Sources: MotherToBaby (NCBI), NHS Specialist Pharmacy Service; clinical references note ibuprofen is generally compatible with breastfeeding.
- ¿Es ibuprofen seguro para la piel del bebé?
- Hazard (h=2) is carried over because systemic reproductive/toxicity evidence for ibuprofen exists (see pregnancy summary). Per instructions, infant-specific hazard or mechanism were not found so h and m are not increased beyond adult evidence (m=2). Topical exposure for infants is increased relative to adults (immature barrier and higher surface-area-to-weight) so exposure is raised by +1 (adult e=1 → baby e=2). No infant-specific studies were found showing different hazard; precautionary higher exposure score applied.
