We use panikoorka leaves at home for cough and cold all the time. Now i have a slight cold in my 4th month and want to take it but not sure if its safe during pregnancy. any malayali mommies here who can tell?
Beta this is our old remedy for cough, just a little juice with honey. In small quantity it's fine, our elders always used it. But dont take large amounts daily during pregnancy, and ask your doctor to be safe.
I would be a little careful with herbal stuff in pregnancy honestly. A tiny home amount might be fine but please run it by your doctor first, especially if you are taking any other medicines. Better to be sure.
I cant really advise on herbs, but I'll share that I avoided taking any home herb in large amounts when pregnant and asked my doc first. For a small home use it may be okay, but better to confirm with your gynac.
We use panikoorka (karpooravalli) a lot at home for cold and cough ya. In small amounts as a home remedy it's been used for ages. But since you are pregnant, just check once with your doctor before taking it regularly.
