Is cephalexin safe during pregnancy?

Question

My doctor prescribed cephalexin for an infection, but I'm pregnant and want to be extra careful. I'm wondering if this antibiotic is considered safe to take during pregnancy.

Please please don't take any medicines like this on your own. Even a small pill can be risky, ask your gynac first.

I had to take it for a UTI once, but only after my doc confirmed the safe dosage. Do check with your doctor first.

Arthi Oswal · Answer

I think you should ask your doctor before taking it, it's better to be very gentle and safe right now.

It's an antibiotic, so do not even think of taking it without your gynac's prescription. Direct and simple.

Bina gynac se pooche bilkul mat khana haan. Sabka body type alag hota hai na.
