Thanks for the response. Would like to double confirm... The tablet was asked to keep in vagina path... But mistakenly she swallowed like regular tablets... So swallowed it one time will not cause any problem for baby right ??
Brief Answer:
There will not be any effect due to the drug.
Detailed Answer:
Hi Sir,
Welcome again,
Nothing to worry.
Generally this tablet can be given both orally and vaginally.
Vaginal route is more effective than oral route in treating the infection,so generally given vaginal.
So do not worry.
By now even the drug metabolism would be almost over in your wife.
So to conclude there will not be any affect on fetus as well as outcome of the pregnancy with a single tablet.
