Is it Safe for Pregnant Women to Take Puhuangyi Oral Liquid?

Clinically, Pudilan Xiaoyan Koufuye (Pueraria and Scutellaria Anti-inflammatory Oral Liquid) generally refers to an oral liquid used for treating inflammation. Pregnant women can generally take Pudilan Xiaoyan Koufuye, but they must use it cautiously under a doctor's guidance to avoid blind medication. Pudilan Xiaoyan Koufuye has the effects of clearing heat and detoxifying, resolving phlegm, and soothing the throat.

1. Clearing Heat and Detoxifying

Pudilan Xiaoyan Koufuye contains ingredients such as dandelion, common sophora root, and indigowoad root, which have the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying. Therefore, it serves this purpose. Among them, dandelion and common sophora root are bitter and cold, particularly suitable for clearing heat and detoxifying. Coupled with indigowoad root, which is also an excellent febrifuge, the heat-clearing effect is very good.

2. Resolving Phlegm and Soothing the Throat

Pudilan Xiaoyan Koufuye has the function of resolving phlegm and soothing the throat, mainly used for sore throat, throat itchiness, dry throat, and a foreign body sensation caused by yin deficiency of the lungs and stomach or phlegm-heat accumulating in the lungs. Even though pregnant women can take Pudilan Xiaoyan Koufuye under a doctor's guidance, they should avoid consuming overly greasy and cold foods, such as fatty meat and seafood, as well as grilled and fried foods, to prevent adverse effects on their bodies and even the fetus. Additionally, note that this medication should not be used if one is allergic to it.
