Drug daily dose expressed as mg/die; blood concentrations expressed as ng/mL; the table shows means concentrations ± SD (min-max); C/D: concentration per dosage = ng/mL: mg/die.

PPI was assessed by dividing the C/D in the cord blood per the C/D at T3 and T4 in the women’s peripheral blood samples.
