Hello sir,
This class of drugs is not contraindicated during pregnancy. There is little data on the effects on the newborn, both short and long term, but the continuation or cessation of this type of medication requires an evaluation of the mother's condition: the risk that this class of medication may cause may be less than the risk of stopping the medication and affecting the mother's condition. If you wish to conceive, it is therefore important to discuss this with your doctor as soon as possible. There are several options, including a reduction in dose.
Sincerely,
Tom Samaha, Pharmacist
