I am 13 weeks pregnant, I have a constipation and today in motion I saw blood, my doctor has recommended Smuth Capsule and Duphalac syrup. Are they safe in pregnancy?
Yes, these medicines are generally considered safe during pregnancy when prescribed by a doctor. Duphalac works by softening stools and relieving constipation and is commonly used in pregnant women. Smuth Capsule is usually given to support digestive health and help reduce irritation that can cause bleeding, often related to constipation or piles during pregnancy. Seeing a small amount of blood during hard motion is common with constipation and usually not dangerous. Continue the medicines as advised, drink plenty of fluids, include fibre-rich foods, and inform your doctor if bleeding continues, increases, or is associated with pain.
