It is important to be cautious with medications during pregnancy, especially for a bad cough.

🩺 Safety of Zeet Syrup

Zeet Syrup contains diphenhydramine, ammonium chloride, and sodium citrate. Diphenhydramine is an antihistamine that may cause dizziness and is generally advised to be used during pregnancy only if clearly needed and prescribed by a doctor. Ammonium chloride and sodium citrate help with mucus clearance but their safety in pregnancy is less well established. Your doctor’s prescription suggests they have considered the benefits versus risks for you.

🩺 Safety of Deriphylline Tablet

Deriphylline contains etofylline and theophylline, which are bronchodilators used to ease breathing. Theophylline use in pregnancy requires careful monitoring due to potential risks and side effects. It should only be taken if prescribed and monitored by your doctor.

🩺 Recommendations

• Follow your doctor’s advice strictly and do not self-medicate.
• Report any side effects like increased dizziness, palpitations, or worsening symptoms immediately.
• Keep regular follow-ups with your obstetrician or a respiratory specialist to monitor your condition and medication safety.

🩺 When to See Doctor

Seek urgent medical attention if you experience severe shortness of breath, chest pain, high fever, or persistent worsening of cough.

Always consult your prescribing doctor or an obstetrician before continuing or starting these medications during pregnancy.
