OTC: Acetaminophen (also sold under the brand name tylenol) has a long history of safe use during pregnancy. The drug hasn't been well studied in pregnant women (few drugs have).While Acetaminophen is considered safe, some other over-the-counter painkillers are not. Stay away from Ibuprofen and other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (nsaids), such as Aspirin and naproxen, .
