Hi My doctor has prescribed duvadilan retard 40 mg, I am 16 weeks pregnant and have to travel for 2-3 hrs daily to reach office. I searched on internet and found many side effects for this drug. Just wanted to confirm is it safe to use this drug? Or any other safer alternatives are available in market? Thanks
