Asthma and pregnancy
February 25, 2008 by admin
Asthma is the most common respiratory disease in pregnancy and it affects a surprisingly percentage (3%) of women. Many women with asthma have no problems during pregnancy, but it is important that… during your doctor visit you discuss it. It is understood that (to date at least), all medications commonly used to treat asthma such as salbutamol (Ventolin), aminophylline, oral steroids or inhaled steroids such as Becotide have not been shown to be harmful to the growing baby.
