Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The topical application of fusidic acid cream during pregnancy or lactation is not harmful. This is a topical antibiotic and steroid ointment and can be used for short term as it is least absorbed systemically when applied to the intact skin.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you. You can consult me again directly through my profile URL http://bit.ly/Dr-Rakhi-Tayal
