Antibotics

Hi Everyone,

Just a quick question, I'm 5 wks and 5 days pregnant and I found out I have strep throat, the doctor provided amoxicillian and told me that it was safe to take while being pregnant. I'm still a little leary about taking it but i know I need to take something to help me get better. I'm just wondering if anybody else as had this happen and everything was fine. Just looking for some reassurance. Thanks in advance.

Amoxicillin is a FDA category B drug so it is considered safe in pregnancy. Not treating an infection can put your body under major stress which can cause you to miscarry. (This happened to a friend) please take it!

I am a pharmacist if it helps. Plenty preg woman take it and I've never heard of anyone have a problem.

I have a UTI and was prescribed amoxicillin. I think not taking it would be worse than taking it. Hope you get to feeling better.
