Hi,

Lactihep is more or less a safe drug during pregnancy, if used for a limited period and under guidance of your doctor. Daflon is also a safe drug, if used during pregnancy. Though the data of its safety, when being used in pregnancy are limited.

Therefore, it is advisable to be used under prescription and guidance of your doctor. However, no adverse effect has been documented till date, when it is used during pregnancy. Similarly no teratogenic effect of the drug has been documented so far.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Satnarain Bansal, General & Family Physician
