Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My 90 year old mother recently had a heart attack. She has had a pacemaker (afib) for over 10 years and is due to have the battery replaced with in the next year. I am an RN who lives over 2 hours from her. She just called me to say she hears a clicking sound and is sure it is coming from her pacemaker. This woman is very hard of hearing! Does a PM ever give off a clicking sound??

Hi,
Subutex is safe for pregnant women and pregnancy provided the drug is tapered off to the baby after birth. Hence, the doctor conducting delivery must have the information.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
