I welcome you to HCM. It is your good decision to choose this healthy forum as HCM is indeed the best place to consult for expert opinion from best team of Physicians.
Duovent is actually class C drug if I categorize it regarding pregnancy safety profile of drugs in this inhaler. So we prescribe it when benefits of using the drug are more than its bad effects on fetus.
You may ask your Physician before you continue taking it because caution is needed. Your physician will definitely be knowing your status of asthma more and can guide you better if you really need that. If need to give exceeds than risks then he may definitely prescribe you to continue. And your baby will not be a blue baby than.
I hope this was all you needed an answer for. I am at your disposal to help more if needed.
Healthiest Regards! Dr. Sumaira Kousar
