Allergies
So I'm about to effin dye from my allergies. Lol can I take allergy medicine while I'm pregnant? Like cleartin or zyrtec?
Yeah I read your posts and I'm sharing the info from my drs website. I'm not asking you to take the Benadryl but like you, I am providing information. Thanks
Yes because its categorized as low risk. But as I said, every medication has contra-indications as to why some people can't take them. Hence the reason prescription medication always says on the label and information leaflet that you shouldnt share your medication with other people, even if they present with the same medical symptoms, because what may work for you may affect someone else. I'm not saying someone should take medication or shouldnt, I'm just advising from a medical point of view, x

Benadryl is in the FDA pregnancy category B. This means that it is not expected to be harmful to an unborn baby. Do not take Benadryl without first talking to your doctor if you are pregnant. Infants are especially sensitive to the effects of antihistamines, and side effects could occur in a breast-feeding baby. Do not take Benadryl without first talking to your doctor if you are nursing a baby.
Copied from the bnf. Yes it should be ok to take while pregnant as it is generally categorized as low risk but as with all medications there may be some contra-indications as to why some people should not take it. Your Dr or pharmacist should be able to advise properly x
