Question

Doctor ne mujhe ek antibiotic likha for a throat infection and i saw the name erythromycin on it. Im 12 weeks pregnant so naturally thoda scared about taking anything. Has anyone taken this during pregnancy? is it safe na?

Swati Mahajan · Answer

I just delivered and remember having a mild skin issue where the doctor said certain antibiotics are okay, but only after she checked me. Please don't take erythromycin without your doctor's green light.

Haan, bina doctor se pooche toh koi goli nahi khani chahiye abhi. Just ask your gynac if it's safe, don't take stress na.

Please, please be very careful about what you consume right now. Do not take erythromycin or any other tablet unless your gynac has written it down for you.

I can barely remember my own name with this sleep deprivation, but I know one thing—never pop antibiotics randomly now! Check with your gynac before taking erythromycin.

In our family, we usually prefer home remedies first, but for infections, we must trust the doctor. Please ask your gynac before taking erythromycin, don't take it blindly.

We struggle so much to get here, so please don't take any risks with unprescribed pills. Reach out to your doctor and ask if erythromycin is safe for you right now.

Please never take any antibiotics like erythromycin without checking with your gynac first. Self-medication can be very risky during these months.

I was always extra cautious about medications due to my history. Erythromycin is sometimes used, but only your doctor can decide if it's safe for your specific week of pregnancy.

Haan na, pregnancy mein medicines khud se nahi leni chahiye dear. Apne gynac se ek baar consult kar lo na, doctor hi sahi batayenge.

I know you might be feeling unwell and wanting quick relief, but please be careful with medications. My doctor had prescribed me some safe antibiotics when I got a throat infection, so please call your doctor to get the right medicine.

Yes, only take it if your doctor has specifically prescribed it to you. Don't take it on your own.
