Use in pregnancy and lactation

The effect on pregnancy and lactation in humans has not been studied.

The possible effects of pramipexole on reproductive function have been investigated in animal experiments. Pramipexole does not show teratogenicity in rats and rabbits, but at doses toxic to pregnant females it was embryotoxic in rats.

During pregnancy, the drug should be prescribed only if the potential benefit to the mother outweighs the potential risk to the fetus.

Excretion of the drug with breast milk has not been studied. Since pramipexole inhibits the secretion of prolactin, it can be assumed that it also inhibits lactation. Therefore, the drug should not be taken during lactation.
