Cardiprin & Pregnancy: Risks, Benefits & Safe Use

It is generally not recommended to take Cardiprin (aspirin) during pregnancy, especially during the first trimester, as it may increase the risk of complications such as miscarriage and birth defects. However, in certain cases, your doctor may prescribe low-dose aspirin (usually 75-150 mg per day) to prevent preeclampsia or other pregnancy-related complications, especially if you have a history of these conditions.

During the second and third trimesters, regular use of aspirin may increase the risk of complications during labor and delivery, including increased bleeding and a condition known as premature closure of the ductus arteriosus (a blood vessel in the heart of the fetus). Therefore, it is crucial to consult with your doctor before taking Cardiprin during pregnancy to assess the potential benefits and risks and to determine the appropriate dosage if it is deemed necessary.

Always follow the instructions and recommendations provided by your healthcare professional when taking any medications during pregnancy.
