Consult a specialist: There is not a simple yes or no answer here. It depends on your specific history and current management and the decision must be individually tailored. You would need at least to consult your obstetrician and a consultation with a maternal-fetal medicine specialist, among others, could be indicated. A "class B drug" (this rating system is no longer used) does not mean "safe".
