PP Ibuprofen with HDP? “NEW info”.

In 2013, The ACOG’s Hypertension Task Force suggested that NSAIDS not be used in postpartum patients with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy due to theoretical concerns on BP aggravation. But “medicine moves fast”. In 2020, the ACOG “green lighted” ibuprofen use postpartum in these patients if no evidence of renal insufficiency was present. In episode, we will review a brand-new publication (soon to come out), in AJOG, released ahead of print on February 10, 2025. This study is a randomized trial also evaluating the effect of ibuprofen on blood pressure control in those with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy. Did they find something new? This highlights the importance of going through an entire study’s materials and methods focusing on the years of patient recruitment to properly interpret results. Listen in for details!
