No, it is not safe to take this medicine if you are pregnant or planning to get pregnant.
This drug is classified by FDA as pregnancy category ‘C’ Risk not ruled out: Animal reproduction studies have shown an adverse effect on the fetus .

It should not be taken without consulting with your doctor if you are pregnant or are planning to be pregnant. Please share the actual status of your pregnancy with your doctor for the correct prescription of this medicine.

only loose motion with watery stools u can take ORS POWDER or ORS juice both are available.take plenty of oral fluids. if u have severe diarrhoea U CAN REACH nearby hospital. bcoz you are pregnant you should be very cautious.
