does anyone else taking procardia for pre term labor have any fears about the medication.?
im taking procardia for pre term labor and it gives me the worst side effects everything i read about it says pregnant women should only take this medication with great concern. and there are so many dangers of this why would they give it to me?
Take a few minutes and google the things that can happen to preterm infants, like bleeding in the head, NEC, respiratory problems, and so forth. It’s important to keep that little guy/gal in there as long as possible.
Other drugs to prevent preterm labor also have side effects.
Your physician has chosen what he/she thinks is the most appropriate treatment.
Is there any reason that you choose not to discuss this with your obstetrician? That is the person who knows you and your situation, and can best tell you why it’s necessary.

they give it to you because the risks of pre term labor are worse in the long run than the side effects. They are willing to risk the side effects, to stop you from having the baby. I took it when I was pregnant, two different pregnancies. Both my kids are fine and healthy now, so I don’t think that it will do anything terrible. Good luck!
