The main purpose of candles with belladonna is the treatment of hemorrhoids. But in addition, they have the effect of regulating the stool and anesthetizing, relaxing on the cervix. And it is for this purpose that candles with belladonna are prescribed before delivery. And to enhance the effect, candles are prescribed in combination with a no-shpa.
But one should not expect that all painful sensations from contractions will stop at once with the introduction of a candle before delivery. The effect of belladonna, as a rule, is weak and rather short. Much more important is the effect of relaxing the cervix - this is really necessary for many women.
And yet, the bluebird candles before birth should not be considered a panacea for all problems associated with the opening of the cervix before childbirth. It is not necessary to hope for complete softening of the cervix and acceleration of labor. Since all women have individual characteristics, including in terms of labor, candles can produce a significant result, while others will not have a positive effect at all. Different ways refer to the appointment of this drug and the doctors themselves.
Side effects of candles with belladonna
Do not forget about the possible side effects of these candles. Among them there are problems with stool. Because the drug has a laxative effect, with a normal stool in a woman, they can cause diarrhea. In addition, among the side effects can be observed dry mouth, tachycardia, visual impairment and other "delights." If you notice any slight negative changes in the condition, you should tell the doctor about this and stop using the drug.
Moreover, one can not experiment with the independent designation of candles with belladonna. Leave it to your doctor - let him, not you, decide how much the medicine is needed in this particular case.
Treatment of hemorrhoids
Often in pregnant women, especially in later terms, there are problems with the stool - constipation. They entail such a complication as hemorrhoids, which is highly undesirable before delivery. In this case, the doctor can appoint a candle with a belladonna extract for the treatment of hemorrhoids.
In addition, constipation is harmful and dangerous because the woman has to push hard to empty the intestines. This can negatively affect her condition and cause premature contractions. Therefore, in this case, the use of the drug may be fully justified.
