Why is Lebexol used in pregnancy?
It is important to appropriately treat high blood pressure in pregnancy. Studies have shown that poorly controlled high blood pressure in pregnancy can lead to an increased risk of certain birth defects, stillbirth, reduced growth of the baby within the womb, and premature birth. For some women with high blood pressure, treatment with Lebexol in pregnancy might be considered to be the best option. Your doctor is the best person to help you decide what is right for you and your baby.
