Pregnancy, breast-feeding and fertility:

In the first 5 months of pregnancy, NSAIDs may be used for the shortest possible time, on the doctor's recommendation, if absolutely necessary. The use of NSAIDs in the last 4 months of pregnancy may cause premature closure of the ductus arteriosus in the fetus and persistent pulmonary hypertension in the newborn.

Flurbiprofen is excreted in breast milk in very small amounts; as a precautionary measure, it is recommended to avoid administration during breast-feeding.
