Pregnancy

Data about the use of resorcinol/sulfur from clinical studies are lacking. Moreover, no studies have been performed on pregnant animals to test the risks of resorcinol/sulfur on the fetus when used during pregnancy.

Talk to your doctor about using topical resorcinol/sulfur during pregnancy.

Breastfeeding

There is no information on the excretion of resorcinol alone or in combination with sulfur into breast milk.

Do not apply resorcinol/sulfur to the nipple area and make sure the infant’s skin does not come into contact with the areas of skin that have been treated with resorcinol/sulfur.

If you are breastfeeding or plan to breastfeed, speak with your physician before you start using resorcinol/sulfur.
