I do think u need to talk to ur doctor about this. I was on albuterol and asthmacort (sp) with all my pregnancies. I know if your nervous he can help you with what meds can be good. A lot have little to no side effects there ju precautions. So please do talk to him and find out for yourself.

I seriously advice you speak to your doctor about what is best for both you and the baby. Perhaps an aresol would work better during the pregnancy? I hope you and the baby both do well. Talk to your doctor!
