Pregnancy and breast-feeding: If the patient is pregnant or breast-feeding, thinks she may be pregnant or is planning to have a baby, ask the doctor or pharmacist for advice before taking this medicine.
Inform the doctor if the patient is planning to become pregnant, or if she is already pregnant. The insulin dose may need to be changed during pregnancy and after giving birth. Careful control of diabetes, and prevention of hypoglycaemia, is important for the health of the baby.
There are no or limited data on the use of Apidra in pregnant women.
If the patient is breast-feeding, consult the doctor as adjustments in insulin doses and diet may be required.
