Doc mentioned amikacin for an infection but i told them im pregnant. thoda confused hu if its safe in pregnancy. wanted to double check before taking, anyone had it?
God has given us wonderful doctors to guide us during this special time. Please don't take any strong medicine like this without consulting your gynac. Stay positive and take care of your health.
For small infections, I usually try warm water or home tips, but for antibiotics like Amikacin, please ask your doctor immediately. Do not self-treat when you are pregnant as some medicines can be risky for the baby.
According to safety ratings, some antibiotics are restricted in pregnancy. It's best to check with your gynac directly before taking any dose of Amikacin. Better to be safe and get a proper prescription.
I was also prescribed an antibiotic last week and got so scared of taking it. Is it for a UTI or something else? I asked my doctor twice before starting it, you should definitely call your gynac too.
Actually yaar, Amikacin is a very strong antibiotic, and you shouldn't take it during pregnancy without asking your gynac. Self-medication is a big no-no right now. Please call your doctor first.
Please don't take any such medicines on your own right now. Just consult your doctor, they will tell you if it's safe or give a better alternative. Take care.
