Abstract
The Motherisk Program is a counselling service for women and their health-care professionals, providing information on the safety/risk of drugs and other exposures during pregnancy and breast feeding to some 40,000 callers a year. Since 1996 we have been receiving reports of pregnant women who inadvertently took pinaverium (Dicetel) instead of a combination of doxylamine and pyridoxine (Diclectin) due to pharmacy dispensing errors.
