Pregnancy

There are no or limited amount of data from the use of Micronised Purified Flavonoid Fraction in pregnant women. Animal studies do not indicate reproductive toxicity (see section 5.3). As a precautionary measure, it is preferable to avoid the use of Daflon during pregnancy.

Breast-feeding

It is unknown whether the active substance/metabolites are excreted in human milk. A risk to the newborns/infants cannot be excluded. A decision must be made whether to discontinue breast-feeding or to discontinue/abstain from Daflon therapy taking into account the benefit of breast feeding for the child and the benefit of therapy for the woman.

Fertility

Reproductive toxicity studies showed no effect on fertility in male and female rats (see section 5.3).
