Need specifics: We would need the exact name of the medication you are taking to give you a definitive answer, but i can assume the dr. Knew you were pregnant, and gave you and antibiotic that was safe is pregnancy. Best course of action is to call your dr. Inform them and assure they know you are pregnant, and ask if the medication they gave you is safe. Best wishes.
