General & Family Physician, Dr. Vasudha's Response
HI, Daflon is a preparation of natural vitamins . There is no reported ill effect of Daflon on growing fetus. So you can safely take it as per your doctors prescription. Daflon is also used to treat severe hemorrhoids , where a high dose is needed. IN that case you should strictly follow dosage advised by your doctor in order to avoid side effects like allergy & digestive upsets. In addition self care like taking high fiber diet/ drinking lot of water will help in resolving constipation .( which causes/ increases the symptoms of hemorrhoids). thanks.
