I'm having a lot of acidity and heartburn these days, and someone suggested Gelusil syrup. Is it safe to take Gelusil syrup for relief during pregnancy?
Gelusil is usually fine, but honestly, just call your doctor's clinic and confirm. Don't take OTC meds randomly during pregnancy, it takes two minutes to WhatsApp your gynac.
Please don't take any over-the-counter medicine, even Gelusil, without asking your gynac first. When you are pregnant, every single syrup or pill should be approved by your doctor.
I also have terrible acidity in my 5th month! My doctor actually prescribed me Gelusil syrup, but I suggest you ask your own doctor first. Are you also getting it after every meal?
Yes, Gelusil is commonly given for acidity, but please don't take it without asking your doctor first. Try drinking cold milk or eating smaller meals in the meantime.
Ah, pregnancy acidity is a nightmare! My doctor allowed me Gelusil, but honestly, ask your gynac first before taking any syrup. Self-medicating right now is not safe.
My doctor at the hospital specifically gave me a list of safe antacids and Gelusil was on it. But they strictly told me to call the coordinator before starting any new syrup, so do check with your care team.
