A woman waiting for a baby should be especially attentive to her health. Unfortunately, in this beautiful period, the expectant mother may well get sick. Immunity decreases during pregnancy. hormonal changes in the body. Often, women during this period encounter a cold. But this symptom can be directly related to a particular situation. The fact is that the entire body of the future mother works in a strengthened mode. This applies to the circulatory system. The volume of blood increases, and the mucous membranes, respectively, swell. The mucus can not completely come out and stagnates in the nose.

In addition, rhinitis can be allergic, because of which a woman experiences unpleasant sensations in the nasopharynx.

Not all medicines can be used during this period. In the article, we will discuss whether Snoop can be used during pregnancy.

Let's pay attention that it is told in the instruction on application of a preparation. It is recommended for the treatment of rhinitis, including allergic nature, sinusitis, acute respiratory viral diseases. This is a vasoconstrictor spray, which means that it is effective for eliminating the edema of the nasal mucosa and facilitating breathing.

It seems that Snoop drops during pregnancy are an innocuous option for injecting into the nose. But pay attention to the side effects. The instructions indicate that the use of the drug causes irritation and dry mouth, sometimes headache, and with prolonged use - insomnia, depression, visual impairment; tachycardia, arrhythmia, increased blood pressure; in rare cases - vomiting.

So, we can conclude that the spray can not be used for women suffering from high blood pressure, tachycardia, arrhythmia. Prolonged treatment Snoop during pregnancy is also unsafe. To treat a runny nose with a drug should not be more than 5 days, otherwise it becomes addictive. It is recommended to do not more than 1 injection in each nostril not more than 3 times a day.

In addition, the instruction contains a caution: nasal drops "Snoop" are contraindicated in pregnancy. Why then would future mothers use this remedy to treat rhinitis? We will deal with this issue in more detail.

Is it possible to spray Snoop during pregnancy?

It is alarming that the spray narrows the blood vessels. It is known that such drugs have a side effect - addiction. If 1 injection does not help, then the woman starts to increase the dose of the medicine. Than it threatens the child? Local action of the drug gradually has a general vasoconstrictive effect on the body, including the "house" of crumbs - the placenta. Due to prolonged use of the drug, oxygen and nutrients cease to flow to the placenta, and hence the baby.

But in spite of the fact that Snoop has contraindications during pregnancy, in some cases, doctors recommend it. Why? The fact that the nasal congestion of a future mother can have a dangerous outcome - to provoke fetal hypoxia. The woman is not able to breathe normally, which means that there is an oxygen starvation of the crumbs. That's why, despite the fact that Snoop during pregnancy has unpleasant consequences, doctors and moms choose the treatment of the common cold with this spray. The outcome of a circulatory disorder in a child from nasal congestion in a woman is more dangerous than the risk of using the drug.

Many women ask whether it is possible to use the Snoop children's spray (0.05%) during pregnancy? In fact, it has the same side effects as the usual (0.1%) drug, but you need to inject the solution more often.

Snoop is especially dangerous for the fetus during pregnancy in the early stages. The composition of the spray is xylometazoline. Studies that have been conducted on animals have shown the destructive effect of this component on the embryo. Therefore, you do not need to risk your child. Yes, and the doctor advises you more gentle means of treatment: saline solution or ready-made preparations for washing the nose - Salin, Marimer, Aquamaris. Take also more fluid, walk more often and ventilate the room.

Rhinitis in later terms is not so dangerous, but this does not mean that it is not necessary to treat it. When the nose is laid by the mother for a week, then the baby is not receiving enough oxygen for it. If other means have not helped, then the doctor can take an extreme measure: in the second trimester during pregnancy, he may recommend you Snoop.

Less dangerous rhinitis in the late term. But if the runny nose is delayed, then the Snoop spray is prescribed and in the 3rd trimester during pregnancy. Often, literally a week - two before giving birth, a woman has a hormonal rhinitis. It is absolutely safe for crumbs, and it is not necessary to treat it - after birth it passes by itself.

So, we discussed whether it is possible to use Snoop during pregnancy. It should be concluded that any rhinitis must be treated, except when the rhinitis occurs before delivery. First use all safe medications. If you have trouble breathing for several days, then go to the doctor. Let the specialist appoint you a suitable preparation.
