How Safe Is Multiple Shots Of Betnesol During The Last Trimester?

Hi I am 35.6 weeks pregnant. I hav already taken betnesol injections twice. Once at 32 weeks and second at 33 weeks. The threat was preterm labour. My doc wants to give me this injection again at 37weeks for c-section. Can you please advise me should I take it or no?
