In the literature

The impact of opioid exposure during pregnancy on the human neonatal immune profile - This is the first human study to investigate the immunologic profile and functionality in neonates with known opioid exposure in utero. The abundance of neutrophils and the ratio of neutrophils to lymphocytes is significantly reduced along with inflammatory cytokines and chemokines following opioid exposure during pregnancy. The immune profile in opioid-exposed neonates may promote susceptibility to infection.
