They are some of the most commonly used medicines for pain and fever. NSAIDs are used to treat medical conditions such as arthritis, menstrual cramps, headaches, colds, and the flu. Common side effects of NSAIDs include stomach pain, constipation, diarrhea, gas, heartburn, nausea, vomiting, and dizziness.
Additional Information for Pregnant Women. FDA is warning that using pain-relieving and fever-reducing nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs NSAIDs around 20 weeks or later in pregnancy may cause kidney problems in the unborn baby, which can lead to low levels of amniotic fluid that surrounds the baby.
Complications can occur with low levels of this fluid. If you are pregnant, do not use NSAIDs at 20 weeks or later in pregnancy unless specifically advised to do so by your health care professional because these medicines may cause problems in your unborn baby.
Talk to your health care professional or pharmacist if you have questions or concerns about NSAIDs or which medicines contain them. Additional Information for Health Care Professionals. FDA is warning that use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs NSAIDs around 20 weeks gestation or later in pregnancy may cause fetal renal dysfunction leading to oligohydramnios and, in some cases, neonatal renal impairment.
These adverse outcomes are seen, on average, after days to weeks of treatment, although oligohydramnios has been infrequently reported as soon as 48 hours after NSAID initiation.
Oligohydramnios is often, but not always, reversible with treatment discontinuation. Complications of prolonged oligohydramnios may include limb contractures and delayed lung maturation. In some postmarketing cases of impaired neonatal renal function, invasive procedures such as exchange transfusion or dialysis were required. If NSAID treatment is deemed necessary between 20 to 30 weeks of pregnancy, limit use to the lowest effective dose and shortest duration possible.
As currently described in the NSAID labels, avoid prescribing NSAIDs at 30 weeks and later in pregnancy because of the additional risk of premature closure of the fetal ductus arteriosus. The above recommendations do not apply to low-dose 81 mg aspirin prescribed for certain conditions in pregnancy.

Office on Women's Health. Hormonal changes during pregnancy can take a toll on your body, causing a range of symptoms from the first trimester onward. These symptoms can include nausea and fatigue, as well as frequent aches and pains. Before getting pregnant, maybe you reached for ibuprofen Advil or Motrin to knock out pain and inflammation. Ibuprofen is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug NSAID used to relieve fever and mild to severe pain.
It relieves pain by blocking prostaglandin, a natural compound that sends pain signals. For example, according to one study , about 50 percent to 80 percent of pregnant women experience lower back pain during pregnancy, and about 50 percent have pelvic pain. Why is this the case? For one, a growing bump puts a lot of added stress and pressure on the spine, triggering back pain. Also, as the body produces the hormone relaxin — which loosens joints and ligaments in preparation for labor and delivery — tenderness and soreness in the pelvic area can follow.
A larger abdomen can also cause rib pain, and rapid weight gain may lead to leg cramps. These aches and pains can start as early as the first trimester and continue up until delivery, so understandably, you want a medication that provides quick relief.
This is a blood vessel that must remain open during pregnancy to ensure your baby receives adequate nutrients and oxygen. The blood vessel closes naturally a few days after birth. Taking ibuprofen after 30 weeks might also cause heart problems in your baby and reduce your amniotic fluid , which is needed to cushion your baby and the umbilical cord and help with lung development.
Before 30 weeks, research is unclear if ibuprofen might increase the risk of miscarriage in some women. Should you worry? Just make sure you stop taking the drug as soon as you learn your pregnancy status.
What are your options? To more safely relieve aches and pains during pregnancy, use acetaminophen Tylenol instead.
