A member asked:

I'm pregnant with a pacemaker, is labetalol ok to take?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

unknown: The pacemaker is not an issue. Labetolol is class c for pregnancy (adverse fetal effects in animals, not tested in humans). If you need a beta blocker, Acebutolol (sectral) is class b (no known adverse fetal effects) and thus is a better choice.
