Brief Answer:
Yes, it is safe

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for trusting us for your health concern.
Inj HUCOG is given in early pregnancy to support placental function.
It helps in better placental attachment and healthy growth of fetus and prevents the chances of miscarriage.
So your doctor has prescribed it rightly, you should also take folic acid supplements

Apart from this I would advise you to follow these dietary guidelines
Take protein rich food like pulses, cereals, sprouts, egg green leafy vegetables
you should take eeasily digestible food and avoid fatty fried and junk food
Take 6 meals instead of 3 large meals
You should take lots of fresh fruits and vegetables and dietary fiber supplements
you should also take milk and diary products.

Hope this answers your question
Please feel free to ask for further clarification
Wishing you good health and safe motherhood
Regards
