Full Prescribing Info
Use In Pregnancy & Lactation
Use in pregnancy: Pregnancy category B. Reproduction studies have been performed in mice and rats at doses up to 400 times the human dose and have revealed no evidence of harm to the fetus due to cefixime. There are no adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women. Because animal reproduction studies are not always predictive of human response, cefixime should be used during pregnancy only if clearly needed.
Use in lactation: It is not known whether cefixime is excreted in human milk. Consideration should be given to discontinuing nursing temporarily during treatment with cefixime.
