Is brimonidine tartrate/timolol maleate safe in pregnancy?
There are no adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women; however, in animal studies, brimonidine
crossed the placenta and entered into the fetal circulation to a limited extent. Because animal reproduction studies are not always predictive of human response, brimonidine tartrate/timolol maleate should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit to the mother justifies the potential risk to the fetus.
