HI,
Thanks for asking.
I understand your concern.
Tetracid contains tetracyclin.. the antibiotic . Tetracyclin is not reported to cause fetal abnormality except for teeth staining in fetus.
Symmetrical growth restriction of baby can be due to -
Restricted bone growth during taking tetracyclin.. this effect disappears after the tetracyclins are withdrawn.
Other possible cause include thyroid deficiency/ malnutrition of mother.
Thanks.
