Yes: Some like tylenol (acetaminophen) are class a drugs and totally safe. Class b drugs are almost always safe as well. If you have a question about a specific drug, ask your doctor prior to conceiving.

Discuss with doctor: It is usually better to avoid medications when trying to conceive but discuss this with your doctor before discontinuing any medications.
