My cold has become bad and local doctor mentioned antibiotics, but I am 10 weeks pregnant and scared. I will confirm with my gynac before taking anything. Has anyone needed antibiotics for cold or infection?
My amma kept telling me to drink kashayam and steam for cold, that gave relief. But for any actual medicine I always checked with my doctor first. Better safe na.
Pls dont take any antibiotic on your own during pregnancy. Some are safe, some are not, only your gynac can decide. I always called my doc even for a simple cold.
For a normal cold I used warm haldi doodh and bhaap, helped a lot. But antibiotic is medicine, that decision sirf doctor ki honi chahiye. Dont self medicate na.
Cold mein mostly antibiotic ki zarurat nahi hoti beta, rest aur warm paani se theek ho jata hai. But agar zyada ho to doctor ko dikhao, khud se medicine mat lo.
Quick honest answer, no. Antibiotics arent for plain cold anyway, and in pregnancy you really shouldnt pick any yourself. Call your gynac, mostly theyll say rest and fluids.
