There are no randomized clinical trials of oral or topical roflumilast in pregnant women. In animal reproduction studies, roflumilast administered orally to pregnant rats and rabbits during the period of organogenesis produced no fetal structural abnormalities at doses up to 9 and 8 times the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD), respectively.There is no information regarding the presence of Roflumilast in human milk, the effects on thebreastfed infant, or the effects on milk production. Roflumilast and/or its metabolites are excreted into the milk of lactating rats (see Data). When a drug is present in animal milk, it is likely that the drug will present in human milk. The developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother’s clinical need for Roflumilast and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed infant from Roflumilast or from the underlying maternal condition.Contraindication
