Is too much NyQuil dangerous to your unborn child?
Yes, too much NyQuil can be dangerous to your unborn child.
- NyQuil contains certain ingredients that should be avoided during pregnancy, such as alcohol, antihistamines, and decongestants.
- Alcohol can cause fetal alcohol syndrome, which can lead to a range of physical, mental, and behavioral problems.
- Antihistamines can dry up mucus membranes, which can lead to respiratory problems in the baby.
- Decongestants can constrict blood vessels, which can decrease the flow of blood and oxygen to the baby.
Pregnant women should avoid taking NyQuil and consult a doctor about alternative ways to relieve cold and flu symptoms.
