Advise patients to seek immediate medical attention for suicidal ideation and behavior

Pregnancy-Lactation
Pregnancy
Contraindicated in pregnant women
Drug exposure early in pregnancy may increase the risk of early pregnancy loss
Discontinue elagolix if pregnancy occurs during treatment
The limited human data with use in pregnant women are insufficient in determining whether there is a risk for major birth defects or miscarriage; although 2 cases of congenital malformations were reported in clinical trials with elagolix, no pattern was identified and miscarriages were reported at a similar incidence across treatment groups
Animal data
When pregnant rats and rabbits were orally dosed with elagolix during the period of organogenesis, postimplantation loss was observed in pregnant rats at doses 20 times the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD)
Spontaneous abortion and total litter loss was observed in rabbits at doses 7 and 12 times the MRHD
There were no structural abnormalities in the fetuses at exposures up to 40 and 12 times the MRHD for the rat and rabbit, respectively
Pregnancy testing

Perform pregnancy testing if pregnancy is suspected during treatment with elagolix
