Gud eve, I am 16 weeks 4 days pregnant now. Laat week I have been diagnosed vasculitis problem called purpura. I am getting pinpoint to large patches of red spots on thighs, legs and foot. So doc prescribed me to take omnacortil 20 mg for 3 days and asked me to taper it 15 mg, 10 mg, 5 mg like that for 3 days. Daily I am getting new spots and old one are fading. Is it safe to take omnacortil during my pregnancy. please help me. Does it affect my baby?
