Pregnancy & Breastfeeding

Pregnancy Teratogenic Effects Pregnancy Category B Oral reproduction studies performed with clemastine fumarate in rats and rabbits at doses up to 312 and 188 times the adult human doses respectively, have revealed no evidence of teratogenic effects. There are no adequate and well-controlled studies of clemastine fumarate in pregnant women. Because animal reproduction studies are not always predictive of human response, this drug should be used in pregnancy only if clearly needed.
