We've used topical mometasone--does it have the same risk factor?

Consult the if American PDR- Physicians' Desk Reference. If Canadian CPS- Compendium of Pharmaceuticals and Specialties These are large books with information on various human drugs. Your pharmacist and Doctor should have these books. My library does as well, these books also have manufacture contact information, so should your prescription. Look for lactose, as lactose is the sugar found in milk, lactose is used in MANY drugs.
