Is it allowed to take Clobetasol Propionate during lactation?
Is it safe for a nursing mother and a child?

Topical corticosteroid with a very high strength. At latest update it was not found published data on excretion into breast milk.The small dose and poor absorption into plasma of most topical dermatological preparations make it unlikely any passage of significant amount in the breast milk. If required to treat eczema or dermatitis of the nipple, it should be chosen lower strength steroids, apply it just after finishing the meal to let it be absorbed before the next meal, if necessary remove any excess with a gauze and avoid using it continuously for longer than a week. Steroidal poisoning has occurred in an infant by continuous application of a corticosteroid in the nipple. Avoid applying creams, gels and other products for local application on the nipple that contain paraffin (mineral oil) so that the baby does not absorb it.
