Corticosteroids should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus. Infants born to mothers who have received substantial doses of corticosteroids during pregnancy should be carefully observed for signs of hypoadrenalism. Systemically administered corticosteroids appear in human milk and could suppress growth, interfere with endogenous corticosteroid production, or cause other untoward effects. Consider the developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding along with the mother’s clinical need for the drug, and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed infant.
Use with caution in patients with adrenal suppression, infection, history of tuberculosis, steroid myopathy, hypertension, recent myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure, liver or renal impairment, diabetes mellitus, glaucoma, osteoporosis, severe affective disorders, epilepsy, peptic ulcer, hypothyroidism, and pregnancy or lactation.
