Pregnancy: There are no adequate and well controlled studies in pregnant women, therefore the safety of Fortesia in pregnant women is not known. Fortesia, like other oral antihyperglycaemic agents is not recommended for use in pregnancy.
Nursing Mother: Sitagliptin is secreted in the milk of lactating rats. It is not known whether sitagliptin is secreted in human milk. Therefore, Fortesia should not be used by a woman who is nursing.
