懷孕與哺乳

懷孕
Unknown Very limited human data; a miscarriage was reported after 1st-trimester inhaled use (UK label). IV pentamidine was embryolethal in rats, without birth defects. US label: only if clearly needed; UK label: only if the mother's condition requires it. Treating serious infections such as PCP comes first.
哺乳
Unknown Not known if it passes into milk; no LactMed record. UK label: stop breastfeeding during treatment; US label: decide on nursing or the drug. Inhaled use gives low blood levels, so infant exposure is likely lower, but there are no data.
