I would check with your health care provided before taking any kind of allergy medication, as some have been proven to cause birth defects. ↑

ask your dr for a list of safe medications. you could also call the pharmacy, they might know. sudafed, tylenol, and robitussin have always been on my ok list from my dr. ↑

I was told different things by different medical professionals. I was told Allegra was okay, then I was told it definitely was not okay. I was told that Sudafed was fine, though. I was also told that Claritin is fine. Has anyone heard anything about Allegra and Sudafed? ↑

Hi Amber. I was told by my OB/GYN that Sudafed is safe to take during pregnancy and works well too!!! ↑

I have severe allergies and I take Allegra 180 once a day. My Dr. said that there would be no problems with it at all. ↑

I was already taking a generic Claritin (Wal*Mart brand, 60-count bottle costs about $12) and was told it was ok to continue. My drs told me that Claritin, Benadryl, Chlor-Trimeton and Sudafed were all ok. When my allergies really kicked up in May, I asked what else I could take, and told the dr that I had sound online that Flonase and Zyrtec were ok to take. He said sure, so I said write me an Rx for more Flonase! It's been so much better since then, because I have indoor and outdoor allergies. ↑
I was told by a Wal Mart pharmacist that no allergy medication is ok, not to take anything with antihistimine! ↑

I had to take Zofran for about four months for severe vomitting. I am now 29 weeks and baby is doing great. Zofran is a life saver. I am allergic to other anti-emetics and Zofran works the best anyway. ↑

I'm on medication and I think I am pregnant. What risk can this cause the fetus ↑
Name: Lauren | Date: Aug 5th, 2005 4:47 PM
Depending on the type of medication it can be really harmful or not.. most medicine once you stop when you find out your pregnant shouldnt be harmful. I was in a really bad car accident 2 weeks before I found out I was pregnant and i was taking muscle relaxers, pain killers, and xanax.. I quit as soon as I found out and was concerned about the xanax....i am 20 weeks and so far everything is beautiful. It usually says on the bottle if it harmful or not ↑

I have all the early symptoms of pregnancy, I took a home pregnancy test and it came out negative. I am concern because I am diabetic and take 2 type of meds (no insulin), I am also on synthroid. My main concern is me being diabetic and pregnant. I have read I could have a miscarriage or pass it on to my unborn if pregnant. Is this true ↑

michelle, all mothers worry about their unborn baby. Worrying will not change anything and the chances that something is wrong with your baby is slim. Don't beat yourself up over it, but take care of yourself from this day forward. Did you have a 3-D ultrasound to rule out any defects? Areyou still using any addictive medication? If so, don't stop abruptly b/c you can go into premature labor. Tell your doctor so you may either gradually wean yourself and the baby, and/or they can be prepared at the birth. Keeping this info from them can cause more problems than one might imagine, not to mention your baby will suffer horrible withdrawal at birth. They will know if this is happening and make things difficult for you. My suggestion is to speak with your OB/GYN as honestly as possible. Best wishes:) ↑

Audrey,
Something told me i was pregnant about 4 weeks before i found out which is around 4 weeks of pregnancy too.... This is not my first pregnancy either so i knew what to look for and i had all the early sympyoms but nothing came up positive until the 8 week all the other pregnancy i found out at 5 weeks.. go to the dr and get a blood test they are 100% accurate! ↑
