Pregnancies complicated by gestational diabetes or pre-existing type 1 or type 2 diabetes mellitus are associated with a higher rate of adverse outcomes compared with pregnancies in the background population. These outcomes include miscarriage, pre-term delivery, pre-eclampsia, perinatal mortality and congenital malformations. Insulin glulisine (Apidra®, Sanofi) is a rapid-acting insulin analogue indicated for the treatment of adults, adolescents and children 6 years or older with diabetes mellitus where treatment with insulin is required. Here, all post-marketing and clinical trials safety data with insulin glulisine in pregnancy available to Sanofi up to June 2014 are summarised together with the findings of a comprehensive literature search. Cumulatively, a total of 303 pregnancy exposures to insulin glulisine were received. Of these 303 pregnancy exposures, there were 116 live births, 12 spontaneous abortions, two late foetal intra-uterine deaths (>28 weeks), three elective abortions and 170 cases without a known pregnancy outcome. There were six cases of congenital malformations; of these, there were five live births; in the other case a live birth was not confirmed. The congenital malformations reported to date do not reveal a pattern of defects. In conclusion, the evidence to date does not suggest a causal association between insulin glulisine and an increased risk of pregnancy complications or congenital malformations.
