Use in pregnancy: Pregnancy Category C. There are no adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women. Salagen should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus.
Use in lactation: It is not known whether pilocarpine is excreted in human milk. Because many drugs are excreted in human milk and because of the potential for serious adverse reactions in nursing infants from Salagen, a decision should be made whether to discontinue nursing or to discontinue Salagen, taking into account the importance of the drug to the mother.
