Dartmouth study offers hope for babies exposed to drugs in womb

Dartmouth study offers hope for babies exposed to drugs in womb | New Hampshire:

LEBANON — One in 10 babies born at Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center last year had been exposed to drugs in their mothers’ wombs.
These are the littlest victims of the state’s opioid addiction crisis.
Their mothers depend on maintenance medications, such as buprenorphine, during pregnancy to prevent withdrawal symptoms that can be dangerous to a fetus.
