Had a bad headache yesterday and almost reached for crocin out of habit but stopped myself. Im 14 weeks now. I wont take anything without asking my gynac, just wanted to know what others were told about it.
Paracetamol is usually the one doctors allow in pregnancy, my gynac okayed it for fever both times. But please dont take it on your own, message your doctor first for the right amount. Never self medicate even with a common tablet.
I cant tell u what's safe, only my doctor can. When I had fever she told me what to take and how much herself. Pls just call ur gynac, they'll guide u properly, it's a quick call and worth it.
I'd really say check with your gynac before taking anything. Even commonly used medicines should be cleared by the doctor in pregnancy, especially the timing and dose. In my case my doctor was particular about what and when, so I never took anything without asking.
When I was working and got fever, I didnt have time to visit but I messaged my gynac and she told me exactly what's allowed. Do that, dont guess. Most doctors reply fast for these basic things.
