Salonpas

Is salonpas safe for pregnancy? The pharmacy in KKH say it is safe. But i have read some articles say it’s safe and not safe. Anyone has used it during pregnancy?

I don't think the salicylate content is safe for pregnancy though.. Tigerbalm ones is probably safer without salicylate.

i avoid using them too. alternatively i use hot water bag and microwaveable heating herbal bag or rice bag..

I asked my tcm before. And she say is really dependant on the ingredient inside. It's best not to use it.

I asked my gynae before when I had bad backaches and she mentioned to avoid all these medicated patches.
