Hello and welcome to ask a doctor service. I reviewed gour query and here is my answer. As this is your first pregnancy and you haven't had any antenatal visit, so i would suggest you not to buy any medication from yourself. Do your firat antenatal visit to have proper check up and then use only those medicine prescribed by the doctor. As not all medicine are safe in first trimester of pregnancy. Hope i answered your question. Feel free to ask if you need further assistance. Thanks.
