Hi & Welcome to HCM.
I appreciate your concern for the safety of the prescribed medications during pregnancy.

Crocin is found to be safe during pregnancy.

The safety of Flagyl (Metronidazole) has not been established during pregnancy hence it is usually not prescribed during pregnancy.

Levoflaxacin is found to be harmful to the growing fetus hence it is contraindicated during pregnancy.

In view of the delayed period, you are first advised to have a pregnancy test done on your urine sample to confirm the pregnancy. Then you need to consult an obstetrician for regular ante natal checkup including an early ultrasound to detect any malformation in the growing fetus.

Hope this answers your query.
