Cautions & Contraindications
Warnings & Precautions
Topical corticosteroids, when applied to pregnant animals, have been linked to fetal developmental abnormalities such as cleft palate and intrauterine growth retardation. A similar, though likely small, risk may exist for the human fetus. For this reason, if topical steroid treatment is needed, it should be used in the smallest amount and for the shortest time possible.
Contraindications
Primary skin infections, rosacea, acne, perioral dermatitis, anogenital itching, and napkin (diaper) rash. Should also be avoided by anyone with a known hypersensitivity to neomycin.
