Abstract
The case of an infant born to a mother receiving continuous propranolol therapy throughout pregnancy isreported. Perinatal problems included: a small placenta, intrauterine growth retardation, fetal depression at birth, and postnatal hypoglycemia and bradycardia. These responses appeared to be the direct result of the maternal use of propranolol. Hence, infants born to mothers on continuous therapy with this agent should be considered at risk for developing these complications.
