Category B: Animal studies found no evidence of fetal risk, and there were not enough studies on pregnant women. Â
Category C: There was evidence of a risk of adverse effects in animal reproduction studies, but no adequate evidence in human studies.Â
Category D: adequate data available from various platforms with sufficient evidence of human fetal risk, but despite the potential risk, and only used in emergency cases for potential benefits Â
Category X: The risks of the drugs in this category outweigh the benefits. As a result, pregnant women should avoid these types of drugs.Â
Category N: There is no data available for the drug under this category
