Use during pregnancy: Although no teratogenic effects were seen in animal testing, reduced fetal survival was observed in animals at extremely high doses. These doses were approximately 300 times the maximum recommended human dose. As there are no adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women, the safety of Pencor during pregnancy has not yet been established. Accordingly, Pencor should be used only when, in the opinion of the physician, the potential benefit outweighs the potential risk.
Use during lactation: Contraindicated. See Contraindications.
