Use in pregnancy: There are limited data from the use of apixaban in pregnant women. Animal studies do not indicate direct or indirect harmful effects with respect to reproductive toxicity. Apixaban is not recommended during pregnancy.
Use in lactation: It is unknown whether apixaban or its metabolites are excreted in human milk. Available data in animals have shown excretion of apixaban in milk. A risk to newborns and infants cannot be excluded.
A decision must be made to either discontinue breast-feeding or to discontinue/abstain from apixaban therapy.
