Brief Answer:
Not safe in first trimester

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

I understand your concern. Neo pentran contains Metronidazole, which is considered not safe in pregnancy, especially in the first trimester. However, since neo penotran is in the form of suppositories it is considered safe to take after the first tirmester.

I hope this answers your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care.
