Is there a contraindication with Concerta and pregnancy? If yes, in the case of planning a pregnancy, when should the Concerta be stopped? Is there a possible substitute for this medication?

It is generally recommended to avoid taking Concerta during pregnancy, as it may pose risks to the baby. It is important to discuss with your healthcare provider about alternative options that are safer during pregnancy, based on your specific diagnosis and previous treatment history. Planning a pre-pregnancy medical consultation can help you explore these options and transition to a more suitable medication before getting pregnant. Your pharmacist can also assist you in this process.
