Hi,
Combiflam is not recommended during pregnancy unless very much necessary. Combiflam is a combination of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs which contains paracetamol and ibuprofen.
Ibuprofen if taken during early pregnancy may increase the risk of complications such including miscarriage. However, taking one tablet may not be harmful for your baby. Paracetamol is considered to be safe during pregnancy.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
