FERTILITY, PREGNANCY AND LACTATION

considered highly unlikely that the use of ORALDENE during pregnancy
will
present a risk to the foetus.
It is not known whether hexetidine is excreted in human breast milk,
however,
in view of the negligible amount of hexetidine which could be
predicted to be
systemically absorbed, it is unlikely that concentrations of
hexetidine in the
milk will present any risk to the neonate/infant.
