Direct guidance
What to know or do
Tell the team the exact substances, route, frequency, last use and any current treatment. The plan may include medicines and behavioural support, but it must be prescribed and coordinated rather than improvised from online instructions.
What changes the answer
- The exact active ingredient, strength, dose, route and formulation
- Why you use it, how often, and the pregnancy week or exposure date
- Other prescriptions, non-prescription products, supplements and health conditions

When to get individual help
