Pregnancy, breastfeeding, and fertility:

During the first 5 months of pregnancy, NSAIDs can be used for the shortest possible period, on medical advice, if absolutely necessary. The use of NSAIDs in the last 4 months of pregnancy can lead to premature closure of the ductus arteriosus in the fetus and a persistent increase in pulmonary pressure in the newborn. Therefore, the administration of Strepsils Intensive Orange sugar-free in the last 4 months of pregnancy is contraindicated.
Flurbiprofen is excreted in breast milk in very low concentrations; as a precautionary measure, it is recommended to avoid administration during breastfeeding.
There is some evidence that medicines that inhibit cyclooxygenase/prostaglandin synthesis may affect female fertility through an effect on ovulation. This is reversible upon discontinuation of treatment.
