Info: Your pregnant female partner needs to be seen by her doctor. It's critically important that she not take any medication w/out a doctor's approval for her and that would answer your dosage question. It's not considered to be particularly bad during pregnancy and is a good choice for that condition. Read this and see Dr: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1481555/
