Nubain (Nalbuphine) should be used with extreme caution during labor and delivery because it may cause breathing problems or irregular heartbeat in the baby.

Extremely unlikely, sounds like you are describing a breathing incedent. Nubain is a very well received, very old, synthetic narcotic. Primary effectors sites are Mu, Kappa, Delta, Sigma brain receptors. All pain receptor sites. Nubain itself, just before going generic, well back in the 20th century, was challenged by a person in California, charging that it was ineffective. FDA investigative authority set to investigate the allegation. Since the drug was soon to go generic the drug companies lost interest, the CA man lost interest but the Government once aroused , never loses interest. The case ground on for years. Finally the report came out and was published, Nubain is not only safe , effective and a correct mapping of the molecule revealed it to be unlike any other synthetic opoid. Non-addicting, low abuse potential, almost impossible to overdose (and then only made you sleepy) no constipation.
