Can I use Nasoclear during pregnancy? I've got a blocked nose that's really making it hard to sleep. Is it safe, or should I try something else?

  1. Safety of Nasoclear During Pregnancy
    Nasoclear, a saline nasal spray, is generally safe for use during pregnancy. It contains no medications that could harm the baby and helps clear nasal passages.

  2. Alternative Safe Options
    a. Use a humidifier to keep air moist.
    b. Apply saline nasal drops or rinses.
    c. Elevate the head during sleep to reduce swelling.

  3. Avoid
    Decongestant nasal sprays or oral decongestants unless prescribed by a healthcare provider.

  4. Consultation
    If symptoms persist or worsen, or if accompanied by fever or sinus pain, consult an obstetrician to rule out infections.
