Using Eagle medicated Oil during pregnancy

I'm just wondering if anyone knows if this is safe. I suffer from really bad back pains when I'm on my period and during pregnancy.

I already have a child and I didn't use it during that pregnancy because I couldn't find enough information whether it was safe to do so. I have recently found out I am pregnant again and I'm suffering terribly with back pain and stomach cramps.

It is the only thing that would help with my back pain when I had a period. Is anyone familiar with this oil and know if it is safe to use? According to Google it contains Methyl Salicylate, L Menthol and Eucalyptus oil. I would only be rubbing it into my lower back.

Super late reply because I was wondering the same thing too. I regularly use the eagle brand oil for itchy spots, and I’m currently in my third trimester (first kid) and my belly has been painfully itchy. I looked up whether the oil was safe to use, and though there hasn’t been a good amount of tests done on pregnant women, I read that the oil doesn’t effect the mom or baby in the second or third trimester, however, it may decrease fertility rates.
