Im 10 weeks pregnant and i want to know what otc drugs are not safe for me to take right now?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Otc meds: congrats to you! I'd strongly suggest avoiding as many meds as possible. While we have a lot of research on a lot of drugs we are not certain on them all. I suggest you ask this at your Ob appointment. Meds to avoid include alcohol, anti inflammatory meds, Benadryl (diphenhydramine) at this point in your pregnancy. Meds to ensure you're taking include your prenatal vitamins and iron.
