That is why most medications in the first 12-14 weeks are either contraindicated or used under the supervision of a doctor. And although Miramistin is classified as harmless to the fetus, Any illness should be treated with this solution in the first trimester only after a doctor’s prescription.

All these pathologies can pose a danger to the development of the child and provoke various pregnancy complications, so the use of Miramistin for them is completely justified.
If the expectant mother has a sore throat or other throat disease, the doctor will recommend rinsing with 10-15 ml of solution or applying the drug using a spray nozzle, pressing it 3-4 times. This treatment is usually carried out 3-4 times a day for 5-10 days.
If you need to gargle more often, treatment with Miramistin is supplemented with herbal decoctions and other remedies, for example, alternate with rinsing with chamomile or baking soda solution.
For a runny nose, the medication is dripped 2 drops into each nasal passage up to eight times a day; for otitis media, 2-3 drops are injected into the ear canals up to four times a day. Ophthalmologists also prescribe Miramistin drops for patients with conjunctivitis. If a pregnant woman develops such an unpleasant disease, the solution is used in each eye, 1-2 drops 3-6 times a day.

Such procedures are done in a nebulizer. 4 milliliters of antiseptic is poured into his chamber (sometimes, on the advice of a doctor, it needs to be diluted with saline) and the drug is inhaled 3-4 times a day.

The drug has shown its effectiveness against herpes, chlamydia, candidiasis, trichomoniasis and other infectious diseases affecting the genitourinary organs.
This medicine is often used before childbirth to reduce the risk of infection. It is administered vaginally for several days before birth (usually 5-7 days), and during cervical dilation, the vagina is irrigated after each examination. If a woman is about to have a caesarean section, then Miramistin can be used during this operation - the solution is used to treat both the vagina and the uterine cavity, as well as all incisions.
Can it cause harm?
In most cases no side effect"Miramistin" does not provide. Sometimes after treatment with the solution a burning sensation occurs. It is usually unexpressed and goes away very quickly, so it does not require stopping treatment.
If, after irrigation or rinsing, changes such as itching, rash or redness occur, this indicates allergic reaction. In such a situation, it is impossible to drip, splash or use Miramistin in other ways. If the allergy is severe, the expectant mother should consult a doctor.

Despite the fact that the drug is used topically and does not penetrate the bloodstream, it should be used extremely carefully during pregnancy and only on the recommendation of a specialist.
Advice! Large-scale studies have not been conducted on the effect of Miramistin on the fetus and the course of pregnancy. Therefore, we cannot say with confidence that the drug is absolutely safe. However, the fact that the product is used topically reduces negative impact per child to the minimum.
Possible uses
Can Miramistin be used during pregnancy? The answer will depend on which trimester you are currently in. If the first trimester has not yet ended, then it is better not to use an antiseptic, even if it is considered relatively safe, because at this time any external factor may negatively affect the development of the baby’s body.

How can it be applied?
Pregnant women are most often prescribed an antiseptic to relieve a sore throat or runny nose. The product can also be used in the treatment of thrush. Let's figure out how to use Miramistin correctly.
Sore throat and other throat diseases
Miramistin is often prescribed to treat sore throat. The product is recommended for:
- tonsillitis;
- sore throat;
- pharyngitis.
To treat a sore throat, you can gargle or use a spray. The product provides the following therapeutic effects:
- anti-inflammatory;
- disinfectant;
- regenerating.
If you have a sore throat, you can gargle with the solution. oral cavity and larynx no more than once a day. One procedure will require about a tablespoon of solution. You just need to gargle, but under no circumstances swallow the solution. After the procedure, you must abstain from food and drinks for half an hour.
Runny nose and sinusitis
During gestation, the use of most popular medications for the common cold is prohibited, as they have a vasoconstrictor effect, but Miramistin can be used. To alleviate the condition, it is recommended to rinse the nasal passages with saline solution, then spray Miramistin spray to irrigate the inflamed mucous membrane.
You can also use an antiseptic in the treatment of sinusitis. When the process worsens, an accumulation of pus forms in the maxillary sinuses. During the treatment, a puncture is made to extract pus and then rinsed antiseptic solution. Of course, this procedure is carried out by a specialist in a medical facility.
Inhalations
For sore throat and runny nose, inhalations with Miramistin solution help well. This procedure accelerates the regeneration of damaged tissues and helps improve local immunity.
To perform the procedure, a 0.01% solution is used; 4 ml is enough for a single procedure. To carry out the procedure you need to use a nebulizer. Inhalation should not last more than a quarter of an hour.
Inhalations can only be carried out as prescribed by a doctor, since if the medicine enters the respiratory system, there is a possibility of penetration into the bloodstream and placenta. Therefore, the doctor must evaluate possible risks when prescribing this procedure.
Thrush
Every second pregnant woman experiences symptoms of thrush. This disease manifests itself by the appearance of pain, itching, and characteristic heterogeneous discharge. When treating thrush, douching is usually recommended. But expectant mothers are prohibited from douching. Therefore, we have to look for other methods of treatment.
Why is douching dangerous? The fact is that when performing this procedure on your own, there is a high risk of damaging the genital mucosa. This creates a risk of transmission of infection to the fetus, as well as the development of complications such as increased uterine tone. Hypertonicity is always a threat of spontaneous abortion.
Therefore, self-douching throughout the entire period of pregnancy is strictly prohibited. But if you don’t douche, how can you get rid of pain and other manifestations of thrush?
Pregnant women are allowed to wash their mucous membranes with Miramistin solution. You can also use the drug, available in the form of an ointment. This will help get rid of pain and itching from external lesions.
If the infection has affected the vaginal mucosa, then, on the recommendation of a doctor, you can use tampons soaked in Miramistin solution. Such tampons are inserted for no more than two hours, the procedure is performed daily for a week. If necessary, the course can be extended to 14 days.
Prenatal period
Before giving birth, douching is still allowed. But douching must be performed by a specialist; douching on your own should be excluded. The purpose of this procedure is to cleanse the birth canal from pathogenic microflora. IN maternity hospital Douching with Miramistin is carried out daily for 5-7 days.
Advice! When performing a caesarean section, Miramistin is also used. The solution is used to treat the incision area to prevent secondary infection.
Electrophoresis
For inflammatory diseases genitourinary system electrophoresis with Miramistin is prescribed. But this procedure is prohibited during pregnancy, since the active substance enters the bloodstream.
So, Miramistin can be used during pregnancy to treat various diseases. The drug is used locally; treatment methods in which the components can penetrate the bloodstream are not prescribed to pregnant women. Douching on your own is not allowed, as this is unsafe for the fetus.
