Got a scratchy throat and was reaching for those vicks candies i usually keep in my bag. Then stopped and thought let me check first. Are they ok to have in pregnancy? anyone?
I was always very cautious during my pregnancy due to my PCOS history. An occasional Vicks candy might be fine, but for a bad throat, try safe home remedies like warm ginger water first.
Beta, instead of taking these store-bought candies, try warm water gargles with a pinch of salt and turmeric. It is much safer and highly effective for throat pain during pregnancy.
Vicks candy is usually fine for minor irritation, but actually, it has menthol so don't eat too many of them, yaar. Try hot water with honey instead, it works wonders.
Actually, I was wondering about this too because I get throat irritation often. While mild throat drops are usually okay, it is best to ask your doctor before taking medicated Vicks candy regularly.
Arey, ek-do candy khane se kuch nahi hota, but jyada mat khana na. If your throat is very bad, it is better to ask your gynac for a safe syrup or tablet.
