I was prescribed this for an infection before i knew i was expecting and now im really worried. Im about 9 weeks. Planning to ask my gynac next visit but cant stop thinking about it. Did anyone here take it during pregnancy?
Having PCOS, I was always extra cautious about taking any medications. This sounds like a strong medicine. I would highly suggest taking a second opinion from your doctor before starting it.
Oh, I haven't heard of this medicine. Is it an antibiotic? I am also in my 2nd trimester and super scared of taking any medicines. Did your doctor prescribe this to you?
Beta, during these special months, we should never take such strong English medicines without doctor's permission. For normal infections, try warm water and rest, but for this medicine, ask your doctor first.
It's always best to be 100% sure about any tablets. I had a normal delivery and my doctor was very strict about zero self-medication. Please check with your healthcare provider for the safest option.
Honestly, my brain is too fried from no sleep to know what Vancomycin is, haha! But seriously, don't take medical risks. Just message your gynac and ask them directly, it's safer.
I know how hard it is to deal with infections when you are already feeling so sick. But please, don't take any strong antibiotics like this on your own. Call your clinic and ask your doctor directly.
At my hospital, the doctors were extremely strict about antibiotics. I would suggest calling your hospital's emergency desk or your personal gynecologist to confirm if this is safe for your specific week.
This is a prescription antibiotic, so it's only used under strict medical supervision. Never self-medicate with antibiotics during pregnancy. Please follow your gynecologist's prescription exactly.
Don't worry too much, but definitely don't take this without your doctor's green light. When my toddler was in my tummy, I didn't take even a single pill without calling my gynac first.
Since I had thyroid issues, I was at the doctor's clinic almost every month. For any antibiotic like Vancomycin, your doctor needs to monitor your dosage and blood work. Please get a direct prescription from them.
Vancomycin is a strong antibiotic usually given for serious bacterial infections. My doctor told me that during pregnancy, they only prescribe it if absolutely necessary when other milder medicines don't work. Please discuss the risks and benefits clearly with your gynac.
