The limited data on the use of pantoprazole in pregnant women does not indicate foetal/neonatal toxicity. The potential risk for humans is unknown. Pantoprazole should not be used during pregnancy unless clearly necessary.
Animal studies have shown excretion of pantoprazole in breast milk. Excretion into human milk has been reported. Therefore, a decision on whether to continue/discontinue breastfeeding or to continue/discontinue therapy with pantoprazole should be made taking into account the benefit of breastfeeding to the child and the benefit of pantoprazole therapy to women.
20 mg and 40 mg tab: Studies in animals have shown reproductive toxicity.
