Can i drink nimbu pani after taking medicine in pregnancy?

Question

I'm pregnant and sometimes need to take a medicine, but I also enjoy drinking nimbu pani for freshness. Is it okay to drink nimbu pani after taking any medicine during pregnancy, or should there be a gap?

Indira Oberoi · Answer

Don't mix the two. Always take medicines with plain water and wait at least 45 minutes before having citrus drinks like nimbu pani. Simple rule to follow.

Kavitha Doshi · Answer

Haan na, plain water is best for taking medicines. If you are craving nimbu pani, just wait for some time and then have it, no need to rush.

Sunanda Singh · Answer

I just had my baby last month and my gynac told me to always take meds with plain water. You can have nimbu pani later, but don't drink it right with or immediately after your tablets.

Amisha Shanmugam · Answer

My doctors at Cloudnine were super strict about this. They told me to never take medicines with anything other than normal water, so please ask your gynac or the hospital staff once before doing this.

Oh god, pregnancy cravings are wild, but please wait a bit! Drinking nimbu pani right after pills might make you throw up, and trust me, you don't want that extra drama right now.

Managing twins means dealing with double the acidity! I used to have nimbu pani all the time, but honestly, keep a gap of at least half an hour after taking any medicine so it doesn't mess with absorption.

Actually yaar, I think it's better to keep some gap. Nimbu pani has citric acid, so drinking it right after medicines might cause acidity or affect the medicine. Just wait for 30 mins, safe rahega.
