Within a week: The "half-life" of this antibiotic is 6-8 hours; this means it is rapidly eliminated from the body. No significant amount of it will remain in the body within literally a few days. In addition it takes 4-6 days from when the event of fertilization occurs (within the fallopian tube) until the embryo is "connected" to your body's circulation by forming the placenta. So go for it!
