I've been diagnosed with herpes around the mouth and given acylex 400. Is it safe to take in 9th week of pregnancy?
Thanks if it is local application no problem don’t worry inshalla everything will be fine
- wellcome and thanks for preffering Marham for your health Consultation.
- dear Acyclovir normally advised in pregnancy after 20 wks of gestation for woman with Chicken pox with in 24 hrs of rash appearance .
- it reduces intensity of viral infections .
- local application does not having harm but oral need to be advised with precautions when necessary in pregnancy .
- discuss with treating obstetrician your current situation or have one consultation as she knows u well but it's better to avoid oral Acyclovir before 20 wks of gestà ion .
- best of luck.
