Pregnancy Categories:        Â
Category A: Studies that were well-controlled and met expectations revealed no risk to the fetus in either the first or second trimester.Â
Category B: There were lack of studies on pregnant women and no evidence of risk to the foetus in animal experiments.  Â
Category C: there was evidence of risk of adverse effects in animal reproduction studies, and no adequate evidence in human studies must take care of potential risks in pregnant women.   Â
Category D: adequate data available with sufficient evidence of human fetal risk from various platforms, but despite the potential risk, and used only in emergency cases for potential benefits.  Â
Category X: Drugs listed in this category outweigh the risks over benefits. Hence these categories of drugs need to be avoided by pregnant women.   Â

Why do we use ansofaxine?Â
The main conditions for which ansofaxine is prescribed are major depressive disorder (MDD) and generalized anxiety disorder (GAD). Â
Because it is an SNRI (serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor), it functions by raising the levels of the brain’s neurotransmitters serotonin and norepinephrine.Â
