Is it ok to take Benadryl?

[ashi96]

Hi,

I am around 8 weeks of my pregnancy now. I have some skin allergies (Itchy & rashes). Is it safe to take Benadryl 25 mg?

Thanks Ladies for the feed back! I haven't taken it yet. I have an appointment with my OB tomorrow, so I'll consult with him again.

Hey all... It is actually on my safe sheet once you hit the 2nd trimester. I have used it in both of my pregnancies with my OB's knowledge.

There's a group called "Ask Peekawho", ask and she will be able to say with 100% certainty. She's a L&D nurse.

I don't think so. It's not on my safe sheet. Pretty much anything made by Tylenol is ok. I think they have an allergy line.

Hi,

Thanks for your reply. I called my doctor, she said it is ok to take.

I'm not sure!  You could try asking the pregnancy board or to be safe..maybe just call your doctor (or you pharmacist might be able to tell you as well).
