A member asked:
I am 5 weeks pregnant and have been prescribed macrobid to treat a uti. firstly, is this safe for the foetus? secondly, i accidentally took 2 tablets instead of one. will this cause any issues for me/the baby?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Do not worry, it is a safe antibiotic during pregnancy and a double dose (200 mg), just one time, should not cause any problems for both.
