Hello and welcome,
Please do not worry. These drugs do not have any side effects. They are mainly given to decrease and prevent abortions in early pregnancy and preterm labor pains in later part of pregnancy.
So you may take them safely if they have been prescribed by your doctor.
Hope this satisfies your query.
Thanks for using HCM.
