Pregnancy: An increased risk congenital malformations associated with minor tranquilizers (Chlordiazepoxide, Diazepam, and Meprobamate) during the first trimester of pregnancy has been suggested in several studies. Because the use of these drug is rarely a matter of urgency, the use of ZOLYSAN 0.5 or 1 Caplet during this period should almost always be avoided. The possibility that a woman of childbearing potential may be pregnant at the time of institution of therapy should be considered. Patients should be considered. Patients should be advised that if they become pregnant they should communicate with their physician about the desirability of discontinuing the drug.
Nursing Mothers: As a general rule, nursing should not be undertaken while a patient is on a drug, since many drugs are excreted in human milk.
