Asthma Control and Pregnancy Queries

1 Reply

Hi there,

My partner and I are planning on having another baby, to join our now 5 year old.

My concern is that most of the medication I am on isn't really suitable, when pregnant.

My current list of medication:

x1 10 mg Montelukast

x1 120mg Fexofenadine

x4 Fostair + a max of 4 more if needed

Salbutamol when required

Am I due for a review as the Fostair doesn't really work as well as I expect it should.

Has anyone any advice on what to ask for, that is suitable whilst pregnant too, as I would like to try and get things on track before hand so I don't have to start trialing with different things whilst pregnant.

And has any one got any good tips for keeping on top of asthma whilst pregnant.

Thank you in advance

Did your GP say your medication wasn't suitable for during pregnancy?? Your current meds were all ones I thought were ok, but I might be wrong! Did you speak to the pharmacist??

Not what you're looking for?
