Question

Can I use Pregabalin to treat eczema at 8 months pregnant?

Answer

Pregabalin contains a corticosteroid called Tramadol, which has anti-inflammatory, antipruritic, and antiallergic effects. Pregnant women should avoid using it. The usual treatment course for eczema is 2-4 weeks and should not be used long-term to prevent drug-induced dermatitis. The use of hormonal medications during pregnancy may affect the fetus, including causing male fetus feminization or female fetus being more susceptible to vaginal cancer later in life. Therefore, it is recommended that pregnant women choose other safe medications for treatment under the guidance of a doctor.
