Consult your doctor before using Ventolin during pregnancy or breastfeeding. While generally considered safe, your individual circumstances require medical assessment.
Studies show limited amounts of salbutamol, the active ingredient in Ventolin, pass into breast milk. The risk to a nursing infant is generally considered low. However, your doctor can discuss potential risks and benefits specific to your situation.
During pregnancy, your doctor will weigh the benefits of asthma control using Ventolin against potential risks. They may adjust your dosage or recommend alternative treatments if necessary. Proper asthma management is vital for both your health and your baby’s.
Always inform your healthcare provider about all medications you are taking, including over-the-counter drugs and supplements, before, during, and after pregnancy and breastfeeding.
Never stop taking Ventolin without consulting your doctor, especially if you have asthma.
Regular monitoring of your asthma symptoms and adherence to your doctor’s recommendations are crucial for both maternal and infant well-being.
