Pregnancy: For lansoprazole no clinical data on exposed pregnancies are available. Animal studies do not indicate direct or indirect harmful effects with respect to pregnancy, embryonal/foetal development, parturition or postnatal development.
Therefore, the use of lansoprazole during pregnancy is not recommended.
Lactation: It is not known whether lansoprazole is secreted in human breast milk. Animal studies have shown excretion of lansoprazole in milk.
A decision on whether to continue/discontinue breast-feeding or to continue/discontinue therapy with lansoprazole should be made taking into account the benefit of breastfeeding to the child and the benefit of lansoprazole therapy to the woman.
