Wheezing - 5 months pregnant
Hi Doctor,
I am 5 months pregnant.
I am getting wheezing .
I am using foracart 200 mg inhaler (prescribed) since 2 months for every 12 hours 2 puffs each time.
Can I continue with that or is there any inhaler can I use which is safe during pregnancy.
Will foracart 200 will cause any harm to baby?
Thank you so much.
