Pregnancy Category:C
Breastfeeding: Topical application to maternal skin may result in pyrene absorption by the infant, probably by skin-to-skin or skin-to-mouth contact with the mother. Alternate drugs are preferred because potential toxicity to the breastfed infant exists. It is prudent to treat the smallest area of skin possible. Ensure that the infant's skin does not come into direct contact with the areas of skin that have been treated.
