procarbazine and Fetal Growth Retardation

procarbazine has been researched along with Fetal Growth Retardation in 2 studies

Procarbazine: An antineoplastic agent used primarily in combination with mechlorethamine, vincristine, and prednisone (the MOPP protocol) in the treatment of Hodgkin's disease.
procarbazine : A benzamide obtained by formal condensation of the carboxy group of 4-[(2-methylhydrazino)methyl]benzoic acid with the amino group of isopropylamine. An antineoplastic chemotherapy drug used for treatment of Hodgkin's lymphoma. Metabolism yields azo-procarbazine and hydrogen peroxide, which results in the breaking of DNA strands.

Fetal Growth Retardation: Failure of a FETUS to attain expected GROWTH.

"Because several previous authors have repeatedly described treatment with thiamine as one of the sufficient prophylactic measures in slowing the development of viscerocranial malformations, especially cleft alveolus and palate, it is of utmost importance that the timing of treatment and dosage of thiamine be taken into consideration not only in animal experiments but also when applying results to humans."1.30Application of thiamine in preventing malformations, specifically cleft alveolus and palate, during the intrauterine development of rats. ( Bienengräber, V; Fanghänel, J; Kundt, G; Malek, FA, 1997)
