Nobody really knows exactly what causes Down Syndrome. Down Syndrome is a condition where a baby is born with an extra chromosome in their DNA. There is some evidence that says having a baby at an older age (40 and above) may have a higher risk of having a Down Syndrome baby. Taking medicines cannot cause you to develop Down Syndrome, because it's something you are born with; however, taking addictive drugs while you are pregnant does cause serious damage in the unborn baby, and many babies born to alcoholics and drug addicts have brain damage. There is a possibility that Down Syndrome could occur if the chromosomes are damaged.
