Caught a bad cold and someone at home gave me wincold but then I got scared and didnt take it. Im in first trimester so being extra careful. Will check with my doc also but wanted to ask others, is it safe?
Please don't take any over-the-counter medicine like Wincold without asking your doctor, dear. My mom always made warm ginger-tulsi tea for my cold, which was much safer.
Please be extremely careful with medicines right now. Even for a simple cold, I never took anything without my doctor's green light. Better to call your clinic and ask.
My doctor had strictly warned me against taking multi-ingredient cold medicines like Wincold during pregnancy. Some components can affect blood flow, so only take what your gynac specifically prescribes.
I was super cautious about what went into my body. Wincold has multiple active ingredients, so please consult your gynac before taking it. Try warm water gargles for temporary relief.
I also got a bad cold last week and was tempted to take my regular cold tablets, but I got scared. Did anyone's doctor allow Wincold, or did you guys use only home remedies?
Self-medicating during pregnancy can lead to complications that end up costing a lot in treatments and extra scans. Just call your doctor's assistant, they usually suggest a safe paracetamol or syrup over the phone.
