Need OBGYN: Acetaminophen is considered to be one of the safest analgesics for pregnant women to take, however, your OB/GYN provider will help make decisions as far as anything stronger is concerned. You may wish to consider alternative approaches for chronic pain management and control which do not require analgesic use.
