zyrtec

Avatar f tn Has anyone taken Benadryl during pregnancy. Nothing is controlling my allergies and I'm only sleeping 4 hours a night and that's thr only thing I can think that might help. Or any other suggestions.

213739 tn?1215486009 m in my third trimester and am dying from the ragweed and my doc. said zyrtec is completely safe to take. Anyone have any experience with this? I'm still nervous about taking it but I also can hardly breathe so I guess the benefits outweigh the risks since little guy does need oxygen. Let me know if you've taken it or if your doc has said anything about it! Thanks!
Avatar f tn Per my dr it is safe! If uncertain call dr or pharmacy!

Avatar f tn For Zyrtec the statement suggests that this drug is probably safe but that there is not enough evidence to confirm that belief. You may want to discuss this information with your doctor. The most conservative approach would be for you to avoid these drugs unless they are deemed necessary by you and your doctor. Good luck Pregnancy Considerations Montelukast (Singulair) was not teratogenic in animal studies, however, there are no adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women.
Avatar f tn My have had terrible allergy symptoms so dr told me that zyrtec, Claritan and bendryl are safe during pregnancy. I took Zyrtec during the day yesterday with no relief by bedtime so I took a Benadryl to hopefully get some sleep at night because my symptoms were still terrible! Didn't realize this might not be ok to mix- anyone have any idea if mixing them once is ok?? Now I'm really nervous I did something wrong even though they're both safe.
Avatar f tn 3) Is BID dosing of Zyrtec safe in pregnancy? I know it is safe during pregnancy but I think most people who are pregnant are using it PRN, not QD or BID. Without the Zyrtec, my hives are not only unbearable but they also start to present in my throat, mouth and on my lips, so going without it is not really an option for me.
Avatar n tn I googled it and it says it may/may not be safe to take it in pregnancy. I know that it is safe to take benadryl although it will just offer temporary relief. I would ask your OB GYN what they think about the zyrtec d and if it will be safe. If you have a sinus infection you might need antibiotics that are prescribed by your doctor to get rid of it! I hope you feel better soon!
Avatar f tn Anybody suffering with skin allergy during pregnancy?? Its driving me mad and no idea whats its from!! I have red spots covering my ribs and back ... yuk!!
Avatar n tn Cough drops are safe and I believe zyrtec is safe I would double check with your doctor about allergy meds. My doctor let me take zyrtec when my allergies got really bad I ended up getting a bad allergy cold one day I took allergy meds the next I would do cough medicine I couldn't tell if it was just allergies or an actual cold and I couldn't take multi symptom cold medicine only one that treated cough only.
Avatar f tn Talk to your doctor there ARE allergy meds that are safe to take during pregnancy. I have horrible allergies that act up even more when I'm pregnant and I always have to take SOMETHING for them.

Avatar f tn Thanx in advance!!! ooh by the way im 11wks 5days...
Avatar f tn ve been taking benadryl since day 1 because I read it was safe somewhere that it was safe during pregnancy. I usually take it for allergies or to sleep. It is not everyday, though more frequently lately. I am worried though because I just had a friend tell me it's only safe after the 1st trimester. Is that true? Does anyone know?

Avatar f tn m 30w5d now but in the beginning of my pregnancy I took claritin they gave me a paper of medications safe to take and for allergies it says either one of those are safe
11803947 tn?1430842645 You might consider switching to allegra or zyrtec. Both are safe during pregnancy. Sleeping with a humidifier and drinking warm tea also helps me.
1080032 tn?1326414386 I was told Benadryl was safe for me during pregnancy, I have allergies bad myself.
10843549 tn?1425096623 Thanks everyone. Been sick for a boy a month. I was pretty much all better and then like a couple days ago woke up with sinus congestion..hate it. I hate being sick.
Avatar f tn My doctor also told me some of the newer meds (Allegra or zyrtec, can't remember which or if it was both now) was OK too. Might just ring them up and ask if you're having a hard time.
Avatar n tn I have a really bad sinus headache. What over-the-counter meds are safe to take??????..... I'm only about 5 weeks into my pregnancy.
