Has any one ever used a ADVAIR inhailer while pregnant?
Hi, me again. Last night I opened my new inhailer an just happened to read the paper that comes in the box. I read some thing that cought me off gard. It said, " If you are pregnant or thinking of becoming pregnant. Do now use this product because its not proven to be safe during pregnancy. An could harm you unborn child". I freaked! My primary care dr gave me the inhailer... he knows i'm pregnant an he refilled it. An when I went to the OB the first time they asked the name of my inhailers. They never told me to stop taking it. Has any one on here ever taking it? Is it safe?
yea, both said there have not been no studies done on it. So they have to put that. Crazy huh.
she did, and her doctor assured her it was fine. both primary and ob. she is in the hospital on bedrest too, and they are still giving it to her
I also use a pink flow meter.
The nurse just called back. She she said that they have to put that because theres no proof that it is or is not harmful. There has not been no research on it. So she said its ok to take. Thank God! Anita

I you it at least once a day but I'm told to do it ever 4 hours. Then I take proair ( inhailer) as needed. An I do nebulyzer treatments twice a day. If you friend is taking it I would tell her to read the info that comes in the box. It said that it could harm my unborn baby.
My SIL takes this kind of inhaler and is 7 months pregnant. If there was a concern your ob would have told you! I'd maybe call your primary care doctor, and tell them you read that and are a bit concerned. See if there is a safe one, or more safe one.
Although, I don't think they mess around with it while you pregnant, because you will eventually become short of breath and need it. Do you use it everyday as it? Or only if your having trouble breathing? My SIL uses it only when she is short on breath. That is what her doctor said to do while pregnant. Also, he told her she would need it for deliever.
