echinacea?
I've been having cold symptoms and low grade fever for a few days. Took some Tylenol, but no other meds because of the baby. Just herbal throat drops with echinacea, honey and lemon.
Today I went to see my PCP because my temp went over 100 last night. They were great, very understanding about my caution because of being pregnant. But then told me echinacea is "not recommended" during pregnancy. Seriously?! Is nothing safe?
They said not to worry that I'd taken it since it's just not recommended, not known dangerous.
Had anyone else heard this? Is it just not sufficiently tested to be considered safe? And any experience taking echinacea while pregnant and being ok (or not)?
