Use in Pregnancy: There are no adequate data on the use of pregabalin in pregnant women, Studies in animals have shown reproductive toxicity. The potential risk for humans is unknown. Pregabalin should not be used during pregnancy unless clearly necessary (if the benefit to the mother clearly outweighs the potential risk to the fetus). Effective contraception must be used in women of childbearing potential.
Use in Lactation: It is known if pregabalin is excreted in the breast milk of humans; however, it is present in the milk of rats. Therefore, breastfeeding is not recommended during treatment with pregabalin.
