Pregnancy consideration: Insufficient data availableÂ
Lactation: Excretion of the drug in human breast milk is unknownÂ
Pregnancy category:Â
Category A: well-controlled and Satisfactory studies show no risk to the fetus in the first or later trimester.  Â
Category B: there was no evidence of risk to the fetus in animal studies, and there were not enough studies on pregnant women.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
Category N: There is no data available for the drug under this categoryÂ

Why do we use ublituximab?Â
ublituximab (also known as Briumvi) is a monoclonal antibody being investigated for its potential use in treating multiple sclerosis (MS). It is designed to target a specific protein called CD20 found on certain immune cells’ surfaces called B cells. In people with MS, B cells are thought to play a role in the immune system’s attack on the protective coating (called myelin) surrounding nerve fibers in the brain and spinal cord.
By targeting CD20, ublituximab may help to reduce the number of B cells in the body and potentially reduce inflammation and nerve damage in people with MS. However, ublituximab is still being investigated in clinical trials, and regulatory agencies have not yet approved it for use in the treatment of MS or any other condition.Â
