Pregnancy: Ciprofloxacin with Dexamethasone should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus.
Lactation: It is not known whether topical administration of corticosteroids would result in sufficient systemic absorption to produce detectable quantities in human milk. It is also not known whether ciprofloxacin is excreted in human milk following topical ophthalmic administration. Because many drugs are excreted in human milk, caution should be exercised when the combination is administered to a nursing woman.
Moreover, because of the potential of serious adverse reactions from ciprofloxacin in nursing infants, a decision should be made whether to discontinue nursing or to discontinue the drug taking into account the importance of the drug to the mother.
