I'm dealing with an infection and the doctor has given me a prescription. Since I'm pregnant, I'm very cautious about taking any medicine. Can someone share their experience or general advice on what to do about infections and medication during pregnancy?
Dear, I always tell moms here to never take any medicine without asking their gynac first. If your doctor told you to take it, then it is fine as they weigh the benefits. Otherwise, please don't touch it.
Oh god, please lock that medicine cabinet! Only take Augmentin if your gynac has green-lit it. We don't want any uninvited guests in our pregnancy journey without the doc's permission, haha!
I panicked so much when my doctor prescribed Augmentin for a severe UTI in my second trimester. But honestly, it cleared the infection and my baby is perfectly fine. Just make sure it is prescribed by your doctor.
After my long IVF journey, I became extremely careful about every single pill. Please dont take Augmentin unless your gynac has specifically prescribed it for u. Your doctor knows what is safest for you and the baby.
Augmentin is an antibiotic and is generally considered safe in pregnancy, but strictly under doctor's guidance. Please don't self-medicate or change the dosage on your own. Call your clinic and confirm first.
Don't take any medicine over the counter, it's not worth the risk or the extra hospital stress later. Just call your doctor's assistant and ask if it's fine for you. It takes two minutes and is completely safe.
