No data available on the use of this drug in pregnant women to inform a drug-related risk of major birth defects, miscarriage, or other adverse maternal or fetal outcomes.

No significant adverse effect was reported in preclinical studies; however, severe maternal toxicities were observed, and the tolerable maternal exposure level was much lower compared to the maximum human exposure. There are no controlled data in human pregnancy.

US FDA pregnancy category Not Assigned: The US FDA has amended the pregnancy labeling rule for prescription drug products to require labeling that includes a summary of risk, a discussion of the data supporting that summary, and relevant information to help health care providers make prescribing decisions and counsel women about the use of drugs during pregnancy. Pregnancy categories A, B, C, D, and X are being phased out.
