Abstract EN

Benzodiazepines are one of the most frequently prescribed psychotropic drugs during pregnancy.

Despite the fact that these drugs have been in use for a long time, there is still debate about the safety for the developing fetus and neonate.

We present a case of a newborn with an apparent life-threatening event shortly after birth following maternal temazepam use during labour and advise to be reserved in prescribing any dose of any kind of benzodiazepine during labour.
