Considered safe: Augmentin (amoxicillin plus clavulanic acid) is a commonly-used antibiotic, and is considered safe for use during pregnancy or breastfeeding. It is FDA-rated as category B, which means safe to use if needed to treat an infection. More info can be read at: https://mothertobaby.org/fact-sheets/amoxicillin-clavulanate/pdf/
