My acidity is bohot bad these days, 6th month chal raha hai. Someone at home had this medicine and suggested it but I dont want to take anything without asking. Planning to confirm with my gynac, but anyone took this during pregnancy?
As a nurse's friend, I always tell people to check with their gynac before taking any PPIs like this. For acidity, try safe home remedies first. Only take it if your doctor has specifically prescribed it for you.
I panicked so much when my doc prescribed this in my second trimester, thought it would harm the baby! But she reassured me it is quite common for severe acidity. Still, dont start it on your own without asking them.
Beta, consult your doctor before popping these strong english medicines. Drink cold milk or have some saunf ghar pe, it helps a lot to soothe the stomach naturally.
Acidity can be so painful, honestly. My doctor allowed some gentle walking post-meals which really helped my digestion, but for medicines like esomeprazole, definitely ask your gynac first.
I always prefer natural tips like coconut water or small meals for mild acidity. But if it's too severe and u want to take esomeprazole, do ask your doctor first as self-medication isn't safe now.
I totally understand how stressful it is when severe acidity hits and u don't know what is safe to take. Please sweetheart, call your gynac before taking esomeprazole, we must keep the baby safe.
According to my pregnancy tracker app, PPIs like esomeprazole are sometimes prescribed for severe GERD, but only under medical supervision. Better to call your doc's clinic and confirm the dosage.
