Other adverse skin effects can occur, as well as adverse effects on the adrenal system and changes in blood chemistry. May cause fetal harm in pregnancy, based on information for corticosteroids as a group. Allergic contact dermatitis with corticosteroids can occur and is usually determined by failure to heal.
