I have asthma and usually rely on my inhaler when I have an attack. Now that I'm pregnant, I'm worried about using it. Is it safe to use my regular inhaler during pregnancy?
Haan dear, bilkul safe hai, pregnancy me breathlessness control karna zyada zaroori hai na. Mere doctor ne bola tha ki agar mother ko oxygen nahi milegi toh baby ko kaise milegi. Par ek baar apne gynac se consult karke unhe inhaler dikha dena.
Actually yaar, using an inhaler is way safer than having an asthma attack during pregnancy. My doc told me the medicine stays mostly in the lungs and doesn't affect the baby. Just check with your gynac once to confirm the dosage, don't worry.
Hello! Yes, asthma inhalers are generally considered very safe and necessary during pregnancy because oxygen flow to the baby is extremely important. Never stop using your inhaler without asking your doctor first. Just have a quick chat with your obstetrician so they can coordinate with your chest specialist.
I am in my second trimester now and even I was so scared to use my inhaler initially when my allergies flared up. Did anyone else also feel super anxious about this? My doctor told me it is completely safe and much better than struggling to breathe, but I still get nervous sometimes.
Because of my past loss, I was terrified of taking even a single medicine during my pregnancy. But my doctor explained that struggling to breathe is much more dangerous for the baby than a standard inhaler. Please consult your gynecologist immediately to check if your specific inhaler is the safest option for pregnancy.
