8.1Pregnancy Risk Summary
There are no available data on NAFTIN® Gel use in pregnant women to evaluate a drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage, or adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. In animal reproduction studies, no adverse effects on embryofetal development were seen at oral doses administered during the period of organogenesis up to 37 times the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD) in pregnant rats or subcutaneous doses administered during the period of organogenesis up to 4 times the MRHD in pregnant rats or 7 times the MRHD in pregnant rabbits ( see Data ).
All pregnancies have a background risk of birth defect, loss, or other adverse outcomes. The estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2 to 4% and 15 to 20%, respectively. Data Animal Data Systemic embryofetal development studies were conducted in rats and rabbits.
For the comparison of animal to human doses, the MRHD is set at 4 g 2% gel per day (1.33 mg/kg/day for a 60 kg individual). Oral doses of 30, 100, and 300 mg/kg/day naftifine hydrochloride were administered during the period of organogenesis to pregnant female rats. No treatment-related effects on embryofetal toxicity were noted at doses up to 300 mg/kg/day (37 times the MRHD based on mg/m 2 comparison). Subcutaneous doses of 10 and 30 mg/kg/day naftifine hydrochloride were administered during the period of organogenesis to pregnant female rats.
