- Abstract
As pregnant individuals have traditionally been excluded from clinical trials, there is a gap in knowledge at the time of drug approval regarding safety, efficacy, and appropriate dosing for most prescription medications used during pregnancy. Physiologic changes in pregnancy can result in changes in pharmacokinetics that can impact safety or efficacy. This highlights the need to foster further research and collection of pharmacokinetic data in pregnancy to ensure appropriate drug dosing in pregnant individuals. Therefore, the US Food and Drug Administration and the University of Maryland Center of Excellence in Regulatory Science and Innovation hosted a workshop on May 16 and 17, 2022, titled "Pharmacokinetic Evaluation in Pregnancy." This is a summary of the workshop proceedings., (© 2023, The American College of Clinical Pharmacology.)
