Data on the exact level below which no effects on foetal development were observed are not available. However extensive use of the product in different species over many years has not shown adverse effects on the foetus. It is concluded that this product can be used safely in pregnant animals at the recommended dose rates.
When administered to lactating females, small amounts of trimethoprim and sulfadiazine are present in the maternal milk.
