hello,
use of drugs can have effects on the person acutely.
however if you have taken IV, the most common complication is thrombophlebitis of the veins.
the baby will be affected only if the drugs are taken during pregnancy.
i would advise you to consult your physician and get a thorogh check up done. get a complete evaluation done before planning your pregancy.
i hope i have answered your query.
take care
