Is cephalexin and acyclovir safe while 33 weeks pregnant?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Entirely safe: Both these drugs are entirely safe for pregnant moms and fetuses, especially this late in pregnancy. In any case, assuming your doctor knows you are pregnant, she would not have prescribed them if she didn't believe they are safe and that their benefit outweighed any risks. Discuss with the doctor's office if you remain concerned about it.
