The blood brain barrier should prevent
bilirubin from entering the brain.
Synthetic vitamin K and antibiotics like
sulfisoxazole given to newborn infants
were found to breach the blood-brain
barrier and cause kernicterus. All
drugs used in the neonatal period
should be tested for their potential to
disrupt the blood-brain barrier.
