Doc prescribed something and gentamicin was mentioned, im 22 weeks. Got a bit worried so i wanted to ask before taking. Has anyone been given this in pregnancy?
I agree with the others, Gentamicin is a strong prescription antibiotic and can have side effects. Please consult your gynecologist immediately before taking it.
I would suggest talking to your gynecologist before taking Gentamicin. It is a powerful antibiotic and usually doctors only give it when absolutely needed. Stay positive, let your doctor decide what is safest for you and your baby, and take care of your health!
I felt so scared when I had a urinary tract infection during my pregnancy and had to take antibiotics. I would strongly suggest you don't take Gentamicin on your own because it is a very strong drug. Please consult your gynac, they will give you something completely safe for the baby.
Gentamicin is an antibiotic and usually only given under medical supervision, sometimes post-surgery like after a C-section if there's an infection. But during pregnancy, please don't take it without your doctor's knowledge. They know what is safe for your baby, so always consult them first.
Gentamicin is a serious medicine, so definitely do not self-medicate under any circumstances. I always stayed active with walking and yoga, but when it came to any medicines, I followed my doctor's orders strictly. Talk to your gynac before taking any strong antibiotics.
Oh my god, please be very careful! Gentamicin is a very strong antibiotic, and I have read that it can sometimes carry risks for the baby's development. I would be too anxious to even touch it without a direct prescription from my gynecologist. Please call your doctor right away and ask if there's a safer alternative.
Actually, Gentamicin is a strong antibiotic and generally not the first choice during pregnancy because it can sometimes affect the baby's ears if not monitored. Please do not take it unless your doctor has specifically prescribed it after weighing all safety aspects. If they did, it means it was necessary, so just follow their exact guidelines.
Haan, Gentamicin thoda strong injection ya medicine hota hai na, toh pregnancy mein khud se toh bilkul nahi lena chahiye. Doctor agar likh ke de rahe hain toh hi lo, otherwise avoid hi karo. Ek baar apne gynac se baat kar ke double check kar lo.
