Hi,

I'm not pregnant and aren't planning on it this year but in the near future. I already have one child but i wasn't on any meds with him.
I'm wondering how safe it is to be on Aropax while pregnant. I'm not sure if it's better to wean myself off it before i try.
Are there high risks associated with being on it while pregnant?
Has anyone had any experience with this.

thanks

" I would discuss it with your doctor before trying to conceive. I know that some are more dangerous while pregnant then others but not sure exactly..Always best to dicuss it with your doctor. "

" Hi,

This is a question you need to ask your ob/gyn.

There are risks taking any meds, even Tylenol and aspirin while pregnant. Especially during the first trimester.

If you can manage to not take any meds while pregnant and/or nursing you won't have to worry about any affects on your baby. "
