Based on findings from animal reproduction studies, LAMZEDE may cause embryo-fetal harm when administered to a pregnant female.
The decision to continue or discontinue LAMZEDE treatment during pregnancy should consider the female’s need for LAMZEDE, the potential drug-related risks to the fetus, and the potential adverse outcomes from untreated maternal disease.
Contraception
For females of reproductive potential, verify that the patient is not pregnant prior to initiating treatment with LAMZEDE. Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with LAMZEDE and for 14 days after the last dose if LAMZEDE is discontinued.
