  1. "contraindications" are reasons not to take the drug at all -- in this case, pregnancy.

    "side effects" are things that may happen, but are not necessarily reasons to stop the medication especially if the benefit of the medication outweighs the side effect.

    I am not aware of a specific term for this. I have just heard it referred to as a "label warning".
