Hi, can I use ventolin when I am 20 weeks pregnant? I have a deep cough that brings me close to vomiting.

Good evening,

You can safely take Ventolin in the usual doses during pregnancy.

I would not dare to recommend this product. It is contraindicated in babies and I think that the data in pregnancy are limited

The camphor contained in the preparation is a strong product. Inhaling the fumes (when put under the nose) could get into the bloodstream. In an adult, there is normally no problem, but I would not want quantities to come in contact with the placenta. For use on the chest, I think it can be acceptable if applied in a thin layer

It's a pleasure!
