Pregnancy As with other corticosteroids, flunisolide has been shown to be teratogenic and fetotoxic in rabbits and rats at oral doses of 40 and 200 mcg/kg/day, respectively (approximately 2 and 4 times, respectively, the maximum recommended daily intranasal dose in adults on a mg/m 2 basis).
Because other corticosteroids are excreted in human milk, caution should be exercised when flunisolide is administered to nursing women.
