Co Aleva With Asthma

3 Topics Found

my mother's doctor prescribe her ebastine betamethasone co-aleva to treat her allergy relating to asthma the first drug that we bought ebastine betamethasone co-aleva was given to me but in the second time i bought the drug the pharmacist gave me ebastine aleva. i wonder if these two medicines are the same? ## No, as you mentioned, the Co-Aleva contains both Ebastine and Betamethasone, however, the Aleva just contains Ebastine, so it will not do the same as the first medication did. The Betamethasone is a steroid class medication, that is used to treat allergic reactions and swelling. Have you tried asking the pharmacist why they made the switch?

I am still not sure if i am pregnant and have yet to check with a home kit. Now my allergic rhinitis is triggered by the weather my doctor gave me co-aleva however i fort to ask if it is pregnancy-friendly. Please advise. ## My wife is pregnant,she can't take a Co. Aleva.for her maintance of asthma. ## No, the U.S. FDA places the Betamethasone in Co-Aleva as being in pregnancy category C, which means it is a drug that has been suspected of causing fetal harm. However, there are some cases where it can be beneficial for an underdeveloped fetus, so it should be taken if your doctor deems it necessary. Otherwise, if a woman is pregnant, it would be best to consult their doctor about taking an alternative medication. Is there anything else I can help with?
