Beta, pregnancy mein bina doctor se pooche koi bhi aisi dawai nahi khani chahiye. Humare doctor ne bola tha ki har dawai bachhe tak pahunchti hai. Isliye aap apni gynac ko phone karke hi poochiye.

Yuvika Pati · Answer

Yes, agree with others. Never take levocetirizine or montelukast without asking your gynac first, as self-medication can be unsafe.

Whoa, allergy meds are definitely not candy we can just pop! I had bad allergies too, but my gynac strictly told me to never take levocetirizine or any such tablets without her direct prescription. Better call your doctor before taking even one pill!

I had a terrible dust allergy in my first trimester and I felt so miserable. I wanted to take my regular allergy pills, but my doctor told me that levocetirizine should only be taken if she specifically prescribes it. Please consult your doc first, dont risk it!

Please be extremely careful with medications like levocetirizine and montelukast during this delicate time. I never took any prescription pill unless my doctor specifically told me it was safe for my baby. It is best to call your gynac and ask for a pregnancy-safe alternative.

My parents always advised me to avoid any self-medication during pregnancy. For allergies, my doctor only allowed specific safe tablets when it was absolutely necessary. Please check with your gynac first before taking these medicines.

For mild allergies, I always prefer natural steam inhalation or drinking warm ginger water. But when it comes to prescription medicines like montelukast, you must ask your doctor first. Only take them if your gynac has told you to do so.
