Default Benicar side effects - fertility

My husband and I are trying to have a baby and he takes Benicar. Are there any side effects for him, fertility, or could it be potentially harmful to the baby if we did conceive?

Benicar should not be taken by pregnant women, so as long as it is your husband taking the Benicar, there is not a problem.

While there have been no actual studies carried out on humans, Benicar has been tested in animals, and it was shown that fertility was unaffected.

You will find detailed information on Benicar in the PDR section at Drugs.com.
