Caught a bad throat infection and im in second trimester. Scared to take anything without knowing if its safe. Will ask my gynac but wanted to hear ur experiences first.
Just like with food, you have to be extremely careful with medicines during pregnancy. Never take any antibiotic over-the-counter. Always double-check with your gynecologist first to make sure it is safe for the baby.
I had a severe UTI during my pregnancy and had to take antibiotics. My doctor prescribed a pregnancy-safe one, and baby was born perfectly healthy. Please check with your doctor instead of taking anything on your own.
Whenever I was prescribed any medication, I would confirm multiple times with my hospital's pharmacist and doctor if it's safe for pregnancy. Please call your doctor's clinic directly and ask them before popping any pill.
Haha, definitely don't play doctor during pregnancy! Only take antibiotics if your gynac explicitly prescribes them. Self-medicating right now is a big no-no.
