[Drug heritage of the newborn infant]

The medicamental heritage of the new-born baby is a reality that we are more and more realizing. During intra-uterine life, the foetus is placed under different maternal influences that the new-born baby is done an "old" and unsafe one who can present, as early as his birth, modifications of his own metabolism. To know if this heritage is really a dotation or an empoisoned gift, is an important question that we are going to study in light of experimental data and constatations of clinical pharmacology.
