Can I Take Cilicaine VK Phenoxymethyl Penicillin During Pregnancy?
Hi, I have just found out I have tonsillitis. I m 34 weeks pregnant and wanted to know if it was safe to take Cilicaine VK Phenoxymethyl penicillin. Also the risks of taking this to my unborn child or not taking it and if it would just clear up by itself.
Hello, Since organogenesis is over by now and what remains is the closure of the patent ducts before delivery, you are mostly safe even if you use the drug. Yet, please make sure that you have been examined and the medication prescribed by a specialist and not taken on one's own. No unwanted effects on the unborn child have been documented with the usage of this drug. You may also try warm saline gargles, steam inhalations and warm water sips with honey and lemon. Wish you safe motherhood.
