ملخص

There are no human data on the safety of cisapride (C) during pregnancy despite its frequent use in childbearing women. The objectives of our study was to determine if C is associated with increased risk of malformations, spontaneous abortions and decreased birth weight. All women counselled by the Motherisk Program on the use of C during pregnancy between January 1988 and June 1996 were followed using a structured questionnaire. Cases were matched for age, smoking and alcohol consumption with known non-teratogen controls (NTC) and with disease matched controls (DMC). A total of 45 pregnant women were exposed to C during pregnancy. There was no difference in maternal history, weight gain during pregnancy; rates of livebirths, spontaneous abortion, fetal distress and IUGR; or gestational age at delivery and birth weight between groups. The rate of prematurity was higher in the C exposed and in the DMC than in the NTC, 14, 15 and 2.5%, (p=0.03); but it was not statistically different than in the general population (5.8%). The rate of major (0 - 0 - 3%) and minor malformations (8 - 8 - 10%) were not different among groups (C - DMC - NTC). This is the first human report suggesting that C is not associated with a major increase risk of malformations, spontaneous abortions or decreased in birth weight.
