Hi,

It may be taken safely during pregnancy. Studies in animals have shown evidence of fetal abnormalities while no such harmful effects were seen in studies done on human beings. Hence, it may be taken safely during pregnancy.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
