Direct guidance
What to know or do
Do not apply a large amount of numbing cream or use an imported product without instructions. Necessary dental or minor medical treatment should be planned, not avoided without discussion.
What changes the answer
- The exact active ingredient, strength, dose, route and formulation
- Why you use it, how often, and the pregnancy week or exposure date
- Other prescriptions, non-prescription products, supplements and health conditions

When to get individual help
Check the exact item or situation with a doctor, midwife, pharmacist or relevant clinician; the name of a broad category is not enough for a personal decision.
