8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary PRISMASOL and PHOXILLUM are pharmacologically inactive solutions. While there are no adequate and well controlled studies in pregnant women, appropriate administration of PRISMASOL and PHOXILLUM solutions with monitoring of fluid, electrolyte, acid-base and glucose balance, is not expected to cause fetal harm. Animal reproduction studies have not been conducted with PRISMASOL and PHOXILLUM solutions. The estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population are unknown. All pregnancies have a background risk of birth defect, loss or other adverse outcomes. In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2 to 4% and 15 to 20%, respectively. Clinical Considerations Maintenance of normal acid-base balance is important for fetal well-being.
When used as an anticoagulant, citrate contributes to overall buffer load and can reduce plasma calcium levels. Appropriate PRISMASOL/PHOXILLUM formulation selection is recommended.
