I'm currently using an Aerocort inhaler for my asthma attacks, but now that I'm three weeks pregnant, I'm worried if it's safe for my baby. Is Aerocort okay to use during pregnancy, or is there a safer alternative I should consider?

Aerocort inhaler, which contains beclometasone and salbutamol, is generally considered safe for use during pregnancy for managing asthma, as it helps control symptoms and reduce risks to both you and the baby. However, its essential to consult your healthcare provider for personalized advice and to review alternative options based on your pregnancy stage. Your doctor may adjust your medication to ensure both your safety and the baby's health.
