Is it safe to take Tylenol during pregnancy?

Hi,
I am 10 week’s and 2 days pregnant. Is it ok to take Tylenol 500 mg for headache during pregnancy? How many tablets can I take per day?

Also, why I am getting headache very frequently is it normal during pregnancy.

Best regards,
Sue

yep headache is common in pregnancy and yes tylenol is probably the only medication even ur dr will suggest... as to how many u can take a day...  best to discuss with ur dr... usualy 1 - 500 mg  tablet did it for me .hang in there... usualy headaches dont  come after 1st trimester but then again everyone is different.

Yes, all Tylenol product is fine and headache is normal with all the hormones flying around in your body.

Tylenol is about the only thing you are allowed to take.  Headaches are very common during pregnancy.
