Pregnancy: There are insufficient data on the use of betahistine in pregnant women. Animal studies, though insufficient do not indicate direct or indirect harmful effects with respect to reproductive toxicity at clinically relevant therapeutic exposure. The potential risk for humans is unknown. As a precautionary measure, it is preferable to avoid the use of Betahistine during pregnancy.
Lactation: It is not known whether betahistine is excreted in breast milk in humans. Betahistine is excreted in rat milk. The effects post-partum seen in animal studies were limited to very high doses. The importance of taking the medicine by the mother must be weighed against the benefits of breastfeeding and the potential risk for the child.
Fertility: Animal studies show no influence on fertility in rats.
