A member asked:
I've been using restasis and i'm 8 weeks pregnant, should i be worried??
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No need to : There is no reason to use restasis ™ during your pregnancy. It's labeled as a class C pregnancy risk, which means animal studies show fetal risk, but there are no controlled human or animal studies. There is no need to chance the unlikely risk with Restasis. Similarly with its use during lactation.
