High Bp during pregnancy

2018-06-08 22:34:55
I have hypertension and I have been taking Amlong 5mg once a day. Recently I found out that I am pregnant, 6 weeks now. I went for consultation to a gynaecologist and she asked me to stop taking Amlong 5 mg and start taking Labetalol 100mg once a day as this is safe during pregnancy. Please advise if it is ok to change the bp tablet now? Will there be any issues ?
