Hello dear,I understand your concern.In my opinion betanasol injection about 2 doses is given in cases with suspicion for preterm labour.because if the baby delivers prematurely it's lungs would not have completely matured by that time.So betanasol is given as it causes lung maturity.It is not harmful to baby or mother.Usually preterm delivery is done in cases of complications associated with pregnancy like uncontrolled BP or preterm labour for any reason.
