Doctor wrote this antibiotic for a throat infection but the prescription was from before he knew im pregnant. Now im scared to take it without rechecking. Planning to call my gynac, but has anyone been given this?
I am always extra careful because of my past miscarriage, so I never take any pill without double-checking. Cefuroxime is generally considered safe for infections in pregnancy, but please get a proper prescription from your doctor to be absolutely safe.
Please never take any antibiotic like cefuroxime without asking your gynac first. Self-medication can be very risky during pregnancy, so safety first always. Just call your doctor's clinic and confirm the exact dose they recommend.
I am also pregnant and my doctor prescribed this antibiotic last week for a throat infection. Did your gynac also give it to you for a cold or a UTI? Let me know how it goes!
I had such bad morning sickness that even swallowing a pill was hard, so I get how stressful being sick is. Cefuroxime is usually given for UTIs or chest infections and is safe, but please ask your doctor to give you a safe dose that won't trigger your nausea.
I am in my second trimester now and was just prescribed this, but I feel so anxious about taking any medicine. Has anyone else taken cefuroxime during their second trimester? Is it completely fine?
