Consult your doctor if the blood sugar levels are reduced while taking Pregnasafe Tablet.
Q. Does Pregnasafe Tablet affect heart rate?
Pregnasafe Tablet slows down your heart rate and makes it easier for your heart to pump blood around your body. Your doctor may regularly check your blood pressure and pulse (heart rate) during therapy to determine your response to the medicine.
Q. What can happen if I stop taking Pregnasafe Tablet?
Do not stop taking Pregnasafe Tablet without talking to your doctor. Stopping Pregnasafe Tablet suddenly may cause serious heart problems such as angina (chest pain) or even a heart attack. If you need to stop taking Pregnasafe Tablet, your doctor will reduce the dose slowly over 1 or 2 weeks.
Q. Will I need to stop taking Pregnasafe Tablet before surgery?
Your doctor may advise you to stop taking Pregnasafe Tablet for 24 hours before surgery. This is because Pregnasafe Tablet can lower your blood pressure too much when its use is combined with some anesthetics. So, tell your doctor that you're taking Pregnasafe Tablet if you're going to be put to sleep using a general anesthetic or are scheduled to have any kind of major operation.
Q. What happens on taking more than the recommended dose of Pregnasafe Tablet?
Taking more than the recommended dose of Pregnasafe Tablet can lead to a drop in blood pressure and slowing of the heart rate, difficulty breathing, or a drop in blood sugar, which can cause sweating or confusion. If you take too many tablets, tell your doctor immediately or contact the hospital emergency department nearest to you.
Q. How long does Pregnasafe Tablet take to work?
If you are taking Pregnasafe Tablet for high blood pressure, it may lower your BP within 1-3 hours of taking it. You may not feel any different, but this does not mean that the medicine is not working, and it is important to keep taking it. On the other hand, if you are taking it for angina, it will probably take a few days for the medicine to reduce the pain. You may still have chest pain during this time or it may get worse.
