Full Prescribing Info
Use In Pregnancy & Lactation
Use during Pregnancy: Isosorbide dinitrate has been shown to cause a dose-related increase in embryotoxicity (increase in mummified pups) in rabbits at oral doses 35 and 150 times the maximum recommended human daily dose. There are no adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women. Isosorbide dinitrate should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus.
Use during Lactation: It is not known if isosorbide dinitrate is excreted in breast milk. Because many drugs are excreted in breast milk, a decision should be made whether to discontinue nursing or to discontinue isosorbide dinitrate, taking into account the importance of the drug to the mother and the potential risk to the fetus.
