I had this antibiotic prescribed earlier for a throat infection and now that im pregnant i found the strip and got worried. Just want to understand if its something thats considered safe. ofcourse i'll confirm with my gynac before taking anything.
I never take any medicine without asking my doctor, especially now. I really cant say if its right for you, everyone's case differs. Please just ring your gynac before taking anything, thats the safe way.
This is one your doctor has to decide, not something to start yourself. Doctors do prescribe certain antibiotics in pregnancy when needed, but only with proper checking. Call your gynac and tell her the symptoms first.
Please dont take any antibiotic on your own in pregnancy. Some are considered okay only when the doctor prescribes them for a real need. Show your gynac your problem and let her decide, dont self medicate at all.
Antibiotic decisions in pregnancy should always come from your treating doctor. There are options they consider safe in certain situations, but it depends on you and the dose. Best to let your gynac guide this fully.
