Extract

The childhood effects of antenatal exposure to cocaine are largely unknown. While several authors have evaluated the consequences of antenatal cocaine exposure during the neonatal period and early childhood, there are no large, blinded and systematic studies of the effects beyond early childhood and no data at early school age.
