Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I am 23 weeks pregnant and by mistake, I have taken a wrong medicine by the name of Addyzoa for five days. I am attaching its wrapper for the prescription. I am very very tensed. Please check. Please let me know if this could do any harm to me or baby.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

As Addyzoa is an ayurvedic drug, a herbo-mineral formulation. There are no safety trials reported with it in pregnancy. However, the dose was taken at 23 weeks when organogenesis (formation of different organs) has already taken place, the chance of any birth defects due to this incident will be very low.

Patient's Query

Thank you doctor,

I have taken it for five days.

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

If it is five doses, I hopefully feel that there are no effects but to be surer, you can get a fetal echo with detailed ultrasound at 24 weeks.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
