FAQ's on Pregnasafe Tablet

Why is Pregnasafe used in pregnancy?

It is important to appropriately treat high blood pressure in pregnancy. Studies have shown that poorly controlled high blood pressure in pregnancy can lead to an increased risk of certain birth defects, stillbirth, reduced growth of the baby within the womb, and premature birth. For some women with high blood pressure, treatment with Pregnasafe in pregnancy might be considered to be the best option. Your doctor is the best person to help you decide what is right for you and your baby.

Does Pregnasafe affect heart rate?

Pregnasafe slows down your heart rate and makes it easier for your heart to pump blood around your body. Your doctor may regularly check your blood pressure and pulse (heart rate) during therapy to determine your response to the medicine.

Is it safe to use Pregnasafe in patients with diabetes?

Diabetic patients while using Pregnasafe should regularly check the blood sugar levels. Pregnasafe may make it difficult to recognize the warning signs of low blood sugar such as shaking and a racing heartbeat. Consult your doctor if the blood sugar levels are reduced while taking Pregnasafe.

Is Pregnasafe safe?

Pregnasafe is generally considered a safe medicine if it is taken as directed by the doctor. The side effects that result with use of Pregnasafe occur during the first few weeks of treatment and disappear with time.

What happens on taking more than the recommended dose of Pregnasafe?

Taking more than the recommended dose of Pregnasafe can lead to a drop in blood pressure and slowing of the heart rate, difficulty breathing or a drop in blood sugar, which can cause sweating or confusion. If you take too many tablets, tell your doctor immediately or contact the hospital emergency department nearest to you.

What can happen if I stop taking Pregnasafe?

Do not stop taking Pregnasafe without talking to your doctor. Stopping Pregnasafe suddenly may cause serious heart problems such as angina (chest pain) or even a heart attack. If you need to stop taking Pregnasafe, your doctor will reduce the dose slowly over 1 or 2 weeks.

Will I need to stop taking Pregnasafe before surgery?

Your doctor may advise you to stop taking Pregnasafe for 24 hours before surgery. This is because Pregnasafe can lower your blood pressure too much when its use is combined with some anesthetics. So, tell your doctor that youre taking Pregnasafe if youre going to be put to sleep using a general anaesthetic or are scheduled to have any kind of major operation.

How long does Pregnasafe take to work?

If you are taking Pregnasafe for high blood pressure, it may lower your BP within 1-3 hours of taking it. You may not feel any different, but this does not mean that the medicine is not working, and it is important to keep taking it. On the other hand, if you are taking it for angina, it will probably take a few days for the medicine to reduce the pain. You may still have chest pain during this time or it may get worse.

Does Pregnasafe cause itching?

Yes, itchy skin, a rash or tingly scalp are common side effects of Pregnasafe. Speak to your doctor if the itchiness or rash gets worse or lasts for more than a week.
