Just to add, Accutane (Isotretinoin) which is a class of retinoids, is very teratogenic. That is when used by a pregnant lady, it tends to deform or prevent the development of certain organs in the foetus. Retinoids should not be used without a prescription from a legal..p
Thanks for this Sport Doctor. Just to add. For people that self adminster ISOTRETINOIN eg Accutane, etc for skin conditions like Acne without Dermatologist prescription, it's good to be careful Isotretinoin in pregnancy can cause cleft palate & cleft lip & other birth defects

Fact Check: Albendazole is teratogenic. This means it's likely to cause skeletal malformation and harm to developing fetus. This is why it is contraindicated in pregnancy.
Fact Check: Can a pregnant woman take Albendazole (dewormer)? No. Albendazole is not safe in pregnancy. Avoid pregnancy until at least 1 month after stopping therapy. If you become pregnant while taking this drug, it should be discontinued immediately. 🔁 to Create Awareness

Health professionals don't listen. Parliament don't listen. I don't even think journalists listen. So I have to vent to twitter via poetry.

Disabled people are under attack. Disabled children are under attack. Carers are under attack. This bile, this rot, this vile, RW, hate-driven cold sore of a debate was instigated by IDS, blown up by @JeremyVineOn5 & now this abomination of a tabloid. I’m shaking with rage.

316 MPs claimed their utility bills on expenses last year, with some members claiming more than £3,000 to cover their utilities. Please retweet this if you think MPs should pay for their own gas and electric.

#WhatMakesACarerCry: is being told my own health must be better than I make out since I 'cope' with carer demands. Erm, no, it's a case of not having a choice but to 'soldier on' despite the pain, anxiety and anguish. #

Completely bizarre that surgeons implanted mesh, knowing they couldn't remove it, knowing that (in private hospitals) they didn't need to record the product, repeatedly operated on the same patient after seeing the devastating harm done. Why?££££ ♂️♂️♂️ ???
