- Abstract: OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether there is necessity for carrying out pharmaceutical care for advanced maternal aged multiparous women as the number of this special population in our country growing greatly under the "universal two-child" policy. METHODS: We compared the pregnancy outcomes of the advanced maternal aged multipara with advanced maternal aged primipara and right aged multipara to investigate the characteristics of advanced maternal aged pregnancy outcomes. Through analyzing the importance and urgency of pharmaceutical care for advanced maternal aged multipara, we explored current status and challenges, and analyzed pregnancy drug risk category and pregnancy drug registry. RESULTS: Compared with advanced maternal aged primipara and right aged multipara, pregnancy outcomes and exposure risk are different in advanced maternal aged multipara. Pregnancy drug risk category and pregnancy drug registry are crucial measures in observing study of pharmaceutical care. CONCLUSION: It is necessary to carry out pharmaceutical care for advanced maternal aged multipara. Pregnancy drug risk category and pregnancy drug registry can provide basis for designing interventional study of pharmaceutical care.
