In laboratory animals, increases in incidences of fetal abnormalities have been associated with exposure of gestating females to topical corticosteroids, in some cases at rather low dosage levels.
While topical corticosteroids have not been reported to have an adverse effect on human pregnancy, the safety of their use in pregnant women has not been established absolutely. Therefore, drugs of this class should not be used extensively on pregnant patients, in large amounts or for prolonged periods of time, especially for the first three months of pregnancy.
