Having a bad headache since morning and im 14 weeks. I know paracetamol is usually the okay one but im not sure about how much. I'll confirm with my gynac before taking anything, just wanted to hear what others were told.
Please dont decide the dose on ur own. Even though paracetamol is the one usually allowed, the amount and how often should come from ur doctor. I always called my gynac before taking anything in pregnancy.
Doctors usually allow paracetamol over other painkillers in pregnancy, but they decide dose and frequency based on you. My gynac said only take when really needed and only the amount they advise. So call and ask before taking.
It is generally the safer painkiller they allow in pregnancy but the dose isnt something to guess yaar. My doc told me exactly how much and when. Ring ur gynac, they will tell u the right amount for u.
I had fever during pregnancy and my doctor gave me a specific dose and limit, not something I picked myself. Pls confirm with ur gynac before taking, dont go by general internet numbers.
Paracetamol is the commonly preferred one but I would never fix my own dose during pregnancy. Best to ask ur doctor or even the pharmacist linked to ur hospital, they go by ur weight and condition.
