My doctor wrote this antibiotic for a throat infection but i forgot to ask if its ok being pregnant. Im 12 weeks and a bit nervous about any medicine right now. Has anyone taken it during pregnancy?
Look, some antibiotics are safe in pregnancy, but only your gynac can decide the dosage based on your infection. Don't take left-over medicines or self-medicate. Call your clinic and confirm.
When I had a bad throat infection at my parent's house, my father insisted we call my gynac first before taking any tablet. Cefuroxime should only be taken if your doctor has approved it after checking you.
I was prescribed an antibiotic in my 4th month for a UTI and was so anxious about taking it. Is Cefuroxime what your gynac gave you? Please don't take it unless your doctor specifically prescribed it for you.
According to my medical tracker, Cefuroxime is a category B antibiotic, which is usually considered safe if prescribed. But honestly, never take antibiotics without your doctor's green signal during pregnancy.
I totally understand how worrying it is when you get sick and have to take medicines. Please don't stress, sweetie, but do check with your doctor before swallowing any pill. Your gynac knows what is safest for you and your little baby.
