Yes, lidocaine can cross the placenta. This local anesthetic is widely used in medical procedures, and while it is generally considered safe for use during pregnancy, its effects on the fetus should be carefully monitored. The potential risks and benefits should be evaluated by healthcare providers when administering lidocaine to pregnant individuals.
