I am 31 week pregnant. I had high bp before pregnancy. Now I have bp 150/90. Doctor prescribed Eslo 2.5 mg. But I am worried to take this medicine as I have seen in google, it is bad in pregnancy. Will it effect my feutas?

No drug is safe in Pregnancy. There are many anti hypertensive medicines which can be given. You discuss with your Gynecologist and Endocrinologist regarding which is best suited for you.

High Bp in pregnancy is equally bad and risky for mother & fetus and it requires control there are some anti-hypertensives that can be safely given in pregnancy as per recommendation, it will be best to consult a cardiologist & your gynaecologist as a team and follow their advice instead of googling & un-necessary reading, because if BP will not be controlled then also baby will experience side-effects.
