Summary

This study follows 50 pregnant women with Chagas disease who take or have taken nifurtimox, to see if the drug causes harm to the baby or mother. Researchers will track birth defects, pregnancy outcomes, and infant health up to 12 months old. The goal is to collect safety data, not to treat the disease. Results will be compared to the general population.
