Scary Unisom News

Knowing I had to get up unusually early in the morning, I considered taking an over-the-counter sleep aid and thought I'd Google it to see if it was okay. I didn't expect this scary news: doxylamine succinate, the active ingredient in some forms of Unisom, has been linked to limb and organ defects, especially if taken during the first 7 weeks, which is before mant women even know they're pregnant. What the piece doesn't say is how much of the drug pregnant women were exposed to.
Just what pregnant women need, one more thing to freak out about!
