                    A: Generally acceptable. Controlled studies in pregnant women show no evidence of fetal risk.

                    D: Use in LIFE-THREATENING emergencies when no safer drug available. Positive evidence of human fetal risk.

                    X: Do not use in pregnancy. Risks involved outweigh potential benefits. Safer alternatives exist.
