Hello, I would like to know if pregnant we can take echinaceas? Thank you

Hello,

According to the information we have, echinacea seems to be safe for pregnant women when used in the short term. Indeed, no effect on the fetus has been detected in women who used it for a period of 5 to 7 days during their first trimester. However, the scientific data is still limited. Depending on why you would like to use echinacea, you may want to ask me or your pharmacist if there are other products that are more suitable for pregnant women.

I hope this answers your question. If there is anything else, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Sincerely,

David Tan, pharmacist
