Pregnancy risk: Zopax belongs to a class of medications called benzodiazepines, which has the potential to harm the baby as it grows. As a precaution, it is advisable to talk to your doctor to discuss safer alternatives that can be taken while trying to conceive, such as Buspirone, a non-benzodiazepine medication.
