HI, I understand your concern.  Control of blood pressure is a must in pregnancy, for it hampers fetal growth as well as it can cause serious condition like toxemia of pregnancy dangerous to baby as well as mother. Antihypertensive Chat Doctor.  Your doctor has prescribed Alpha dopa & Joplin . You have to continue with the medication. Regular follow up as per doctors advise is essential to avoid the complications.  The restriction of fetal growth must be due to the blood pressure. Controlled blood pressure along with nutritional supplement would correct it. Please don't worry.  Thanks.
