I take deworming tablet every 6 months normally and the time has come again. But now im 11 weeks pregnant so im not sure if i should. Planning to ask my gynac but wanted to know ur experience first.
Medication safety is so critical during these nine months. Please do not take any tablet like albendazole without asking your doctor, as it can be unsafe depending on your trimester.
Wait, my doctor strictly told me to avoid such medicines in the first trimester. Did your doctor prescribe this to you or are you thinking of taking it yourself?
In our homes we use natural things for stomach issues, but for strong medicines like albendazole, always trust your gynac. Don't take it on your own at all.
Actually, my doctor told me that albendazole is generally avoided in the first trimester because it can affect the baby. If there is a severe worm infection, only the gynac can decide the safe dosage for later months.
My brain can't even remember the spelling of medicines, but I know for sure you shouldn't pop any pill without doctor's green light. Call your clinic and ask them, don't guess!
