Medicine in Pregnancy

Asked for Female, 36 years

30+ weeks pregnant and fasting. I have a history of preeclampsia. Now on bp support medicine(ascard-75mg). Need to ask if I can take medicine in iftari time? If I’m taking medicine in sehri, my bp is going low 90/70, although no difficulty in fasting, movement, and my condition is normal. Tell me what’s the best time to take medicine? Is it safe to take medicine in the evening? Only need or advice.

Dear Patient,

If you feel ok on 90/70 BP then I recommend it's okay to take your medicine in the morning. But you can also shift to iftari time and see if your BP isn't dangerously high all day. Also, one other thing you can do is take ample water between fasts as it will increase your bp a little and not make it as low as 90/70.

For further consultation, you can choose from our list of best Gynecologists in Lahore and seek in-person advice.
