Is combiflam safe during pregnancy?

Question

I had a really bad body ache yesterday and almost took a combiflam out of habit, then stopped myself. Im 11 weeks. Now im worried because i used to take it so casually before. Is it safe at all in pregnancy?

Gauri Banerjee · Answer

I'd be really careful with this one. Painkillers like combiflam are not something to take without your doctor's okay during pregnancy. Whatever you're feeling, call your gynac first and let them prescribe something safe.

Don't take combiflam on your own in pregnancy, its generally one they tell us to avoid. For fever or pain, ring your doctor and take only what she approves. Quick call now saves worry later.

Better to avoid it and just ask your doctor for a safe option na. Dont self medicate.

My doctor specifically warned me against combiflam in pregnancy as it has ibuprofen which she said to avoid, especially later on. She gave me a safer option when I needed something. So pls dont self medicate, just check with your gynac for the right alternative.

Amita Jog · Answer

I personally avoided combiflam completely in my pregnancy, my doctor had told me not to take it. Please dont take it on your own, call your gynac and ask what you can take for whatever pain or fever you have.
