Pregnancy

8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary There are no adequate and well-controlled studies of iDose TR (travoprost intracameral implant) administration in pregnant women to inform a drug-associated risk. Subcutaneous administration of travoprost to pregnant mice and rats throughout the period of organogenesis produced embryo-fetal lethality, spontaneous abortion, and premature delivery at potentially clinically relevant doses. Advise pregnant women of a potential risk to a fetus. iDose TR should be administered during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus.
