Strictly not to be used during pregnancy. Drugs that can act directly on the renin-angiotensin system can cause fetal and neonatal morbidity and death when administered to pregnant women. When pregnancy is detected, candesartan cilexetil should be discontinued as soon as possible.
Because of the potential for adverse effects on the nursing infant, a decision should be made whether to discontinue nursing or discontinue candesartan, taking into account the importance of candesartan to the mother.
