amoxicillin

[skincaid]

My doctor put me on amoxicillin for 7 days because of small infection. Is it okay to be taking this while I'm pregnant.?

Thanks everyone (: I was just unsure this is my first pregnancy and I really don't wanna do anything wrong.

Your doctor would not give you a medication if it wasn't good for your baby :)

amox is the best antibotic to take while preg its usually the most common prescribed one for pregnant women i took it for 3 weeks in my 1st trimester and my bub is fine :) but be weary amox can cause yeast infections so if you do have any uncomfortable ness or swelling itching or unusuall discharge see a dr straight away before it gets worse cause it can be really horrible

Yes that is fine to take while pregnant :)

Yes.  Most/many antibiotics are safe while pregnant.  I have had to take antibiotics many times during first trimesters of various pregnancies and all 7 of my babies have been healthy.
