Is CYLTEZO safe in pregnancy?
It is not known if CYLTEZO may harm your unborn baby. You and your doctor should decide if you should take CYLTEZO while you are pregnant. Monoclonal antibodies are increasingly transported across the placenta as pregnancy progresses, with the largest amount transferred during the third trimester. Risks and benefits should be considered prior to administering live or live-attenuated vaccines to infants exposed to CYLTEZO products
