I was given flagyl 500mg twice since being pregnant. now people are saying it isn't safe. i'm almost 12 weeks so what's gonna happen to my baby?

Category B: No drug is ever completely safe in pregnancy. Therefore, one should always minimize the drugs taken in pregnancy. Flagyl is a pregnancy risk category b according to the us fda. That means that there is no evidence of risk in studies.
