Fertility: Teratogenicity studies in both rats and rabbits reported that Amphotericin B Liposome for Injection has no teratogenic potential in these species.
Pregnancy: The safety of Amphotericin B Liposome for Injection in pregnant women has not been reported. Amphotericin B Liposome for Injection should only be used during pregnancy if the possible benefits to be derived outweigh the potential risks to the mother and foetus.
