A member asked:

Is the medication tempra (acetaminophen) bad to take while pregnant?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Safe: Tempra is just Tylenol (acetaminophen, aka paracetamol) sold in places outside the US. It is usually considered safe, though in some studies there is an association between frequent maternal use of acetaminophen during pregnancy and asthma in early childhood. Occasional use is considered safe. Best wishes!
