hyperlink reference not valid. ) . the background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. all pregnancies have a background risk of birth defect, loss, or other adverse outcomes. in the u.s. general population, the estimated risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2 to 4% and 15 to 20%, respectively. data animal data betamethasone dipropionate has been shown to cause malformations in rabbits when given by the intramuscular route at doses of 0.05 mg/kg. the abnormalities observed included umbilical hernias, cephalocele, and cleft palate. risk summary there are no data regarding the excretion of betamethasone dipropionate in breast milk, the effects on the breastfed infant, or the effects on milk production after topical application of betamethasone dipropionate cream (augmented) to women who are breastfeeding. it is possible that topical administration of large amounts of betamethasone dipropionate could result in sufficient systemic absorption to produce detectable quantities in human milk. the developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother's clinical need for betamethasone dipropionate cream (augmented) and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed infant from betamethasone dipropionate cream (augmented) or from the underlying maternal condition. clinical considerations to minimize potential exposure to the breastfed infant via breast milk, use betamethasone dipropionate cream (augmented) on the smallest area of skin and for the shortest duration possible while breastfeeding. advise breastfeeding women not to apply betamethasone dipropionate cream (augmented) directly to the nipple and areola to avoid direct infant exposure [see use in specific populations (8.4)] . use of betamethasone dipropionate cream (augmented) in pediatric patients younger than 13 years of age is not recommended due to the potential for hpa axis suppression [see warnings and precautions (5.1)] . in an open-label hpa axis safety trial in subjects 3 months to 12 years of age with atopic dermatitis, betamethasone dipropionate cream (augmented), 0.05% was applied twice daily for 2 to 3 weeks over a mean body surface area of 58% (range 35% to 95%). in 19 of 60 (32%) evaluable subjects, adrenal suppression was indicated by either a ≤5 mcg/dl pre-stimulation cortisol, or a cosyntropin post-stimulation cortisol ≤18 mcg/dl and/or an increase of <7 mcg/dl from the baseline cortisol. out of the 19 subjects with hpa axis suppression, 4 subjects were tested 2 weeks after discontinuation of betamethasone dipropionate cream (augmented), and 3 of the 4 (75%) had complete recovery of hpa axis function. the proportion of subjects with adrenal suppression in this trial was progressively greater, the younger the age group. because of a higher ratio of skin surface area to body mass, pediatric patients are at a greater risk than adults of systemic toxicity when treated with topical drugs. they are, therefore, also at greater risk of hpa axis suppression and adrenal insufficiency upon the use of topical corticosteroids. rare systemic effects such as cushing's syndrome, linear growth retardation, delayed weight gain, and intracranial hypertension have been reported in pediatric patients, especially those with prolonged exposure to large doses of high potency topical corticosteroids. local adverse reactions including skin atrophy have also been reported with use of topical corticosteroids in pediatric patients. avoid use of betamethasone dipropionate cream (augmented) in the treatment of diaper dermatitis. clinical trials of betamethasone dipropionate cream (augmented) included 104 subjects who were 65 years of age and over and 8 subjects who were 75 years of age and over. no overall differences in safety or effectiveness were observed between these subjects and younger subjects, and other reported clinical experience has not identified differences in responses between the elderly and younger patients. however, greater sensitivity of some older individuals cannot be ruled out.
