That last bit about minimal placental passage sounds like drug company promotion rather than scientific data. I'd question why one (only) NSAID can have such pharmacokinetics - is there real evidence out there?

If you want to stay away from narcotics, what works really well is also sulindac (i can't remember trade name) used it quite a bit in high risk in Detroit with MFM, worked very well, it is an nsaid but minimally crosses the placenta if at all

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
