Mere saath bad cough is going on and my MIL is saying to take adulsa kadha like she always makes at ghar. but im 14 weeks and not sure if these home remedies are ok now. anyone checked with doc about this?
Medical bills and hospital visits are already so expensive during pregnancy, so why take a risk with Adulsa and end up needing extra scans or emergency visits? Stick to simple warm water and ask your doctor for a safe, cheap prescription.
Honestly, Adulsa is known to cause mild uterine contractions, so it's generally not recommended in pregnancy. Even though it's herbal, it is always best to check with your gynac before taking any cough syrup.
Since I had a PCOS pregnancy, I was super careful about everything. I read that Adulsa can stimulate the uterus, so I completely avoided it. Please be safe and run it by your doctor first.
I actually took a spoonful of Adulsa syrup once before knowing it might not be safe and panicked like crazy! But my gynac reassured me that a small single dose wouldn't harm. Still, better to avoid it going forward and ask your doctor.
In our family, elders suggest herbal decoctions for cough, but my doctor strictly told me to avoid Adulsa during pregnancy because of the active herbs. I chose to listen to my doctor and drank warm ginger-tulsi water instead.
I can't give medical advice, but when I had a bad cough in my second trimester, I wanted to take Adulsa but my doctor asked me to avoid it. I just stuck to warm water gargles and steam inhalation.
