Are ocular drugs safe in pregnancy?

Question

I use eye drops regularly for my dry eyes and now that im pregnant im scared to continue. Dont want anything to reach the baby. Planning to ask my gynac but wanted to hear if anyone used eye drops during pregnancy.

Dekho, aankh ki dawai dekhne mein lagti hai ki safe hogi par asar poori body pe hota hai. Please bina doctor ko bataye koi drop mat dalo. Apne gynac ko phone karke pooch lo, woh safe drops prescribe kar dengi.

Arthi Panda · Answer

Never use any eye drops during pregnancy without asking your gynecologist or eye specialist. Some ocular drugs contain steroids or beta-blockers that can absorb into your bloodstream and reach the baby. Keep it safe and get a proper prescription.

Tanushree Mohanty · Answer

Do not take any ocular drugs without your gynac's approval. It's not safe to self-medicate during pregnancy.

Vibha Deshmukh · Answer

Yes, always consult your doctor first, because even eye drops can get absorbed into the body.

Behan, bina doctor se pooche aankh mein koi bhi dawai mat dalna. Kuch dawaiyan bachhe ke liye nuksan-dayak ho sakti hain. Ek baar apne doctor ko dikha lo, woh sabse safe dawai denge.
