I am currently 36 week pregnant and i'm undergoing c section surgery on coming monday. Doctor asked me to take betnesol for two consecutive days and 3 days before delivery. Is it safe to take it before 3 days as I heard that it is taken before 24 hrs of delivery. Please advice.

It is safe it helps in fetal lung maturity and prevents preterm baby from intra ventricular haemorrhage and necrotising enterocolitis.
