Cortisone cream Question: Is it safe for to use cortisone cream as a treatment for skin blemish (facial/lips area) during pregnancy?
These facial blemishes are due to high levels of estrogen and progesterone. I doubt that steroid would be helpful. Local application of small amounts would not usually present a problem. Pregnancy Question: I use Anafranil as a medication for OCD. With my first pregnancy I didn’t take any medication, but the OCD was very hard. I want to know if I can use any kind of medication against OCD during a pregnancy. Answer: There are no controlled studies which will answer this problem. Anafranil is listed as a Class C drug in pregnancy with no teratogenic effects found in rats and mice given this drug while pregnant. However, there are no definite advice to give.
