Erythromycin Topical Solution 2% while Pregnant? Posted: 08-30-06 21:14pm
Is it OK to use Erythromycin Topical
Solution 2% while pregnant? I was using
it for my acne. It's not bad now but I
feel like I have to use it or I'm going to
break out. I just don't want to use
anything that could be harmful to the
baby.

You may locally use a 2% solution of
erythromycin while pregnant if required.
It won’t harm your baby.
