NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. supplies Oxcarbazepine (CAS 28721-07-5), an important medication for epilepsy and mood disorders. When it comes to its use during pregnancy and breastfeeding, careful consideration of risks and benefits is paramount. The decision to use Oxcarbazepine in these sensitive periods requires a thorough evaluation of maternal and fetal health, guided by medical expertise.

Historically, Oxcarbazepine, due to early animal studies and its structural similarity to carbamazepine (which is known to be teratogenic), raised concerns about its potential to cause fetal abnormalities. However, more recent limited research suggests that the rates of major fetal malformations in pregnancies exposed to Oxcarbazepine may be comparable to those in the general population. Despite this, pregnant individuals with epilepsy often face a difficult choice: continuing antiepileptic medication or risking seizures, which can also pose significant dangers to both mother and fetus. It is crucial to weigh the risks of uncontrolled seizures against the potential risks associated with Oxcarbazepine exposure. Healthcare providers often recommend the lowest effective dose and may suggest folic acid supplementation.

Regarding breastfeeding, both Oxcarbazepine and its active metabolite, licarbazepine, are present in breast milk. This means that a nursing infant can be exposed to the drug. The decision to breastfeed while taking Oxcarbazepine should involve a careful assessment of the potential side effects on the infant versus the benefits of breastfeeding for the child's development and the mother's well-being. Medical professionals will consider the infant's health and monitor for any adverse reactions.
