I have a really sore throat and havent been able to sleep last night.?

If the doctor gives me amoxicillin for strep throat( i have white stuff on my tonsils) is it safe to take while 22 weeks pregnant? thanks
Answer:
Check with your doctor or pharmacist - but it's unlikely he/she would prescribe something that wouldn't be safe with your pregnancy.
Hope you feel better soon.
If the Md gave it to you, it's safe. I would call your Md and ask what is safe to take when you're pregnant.
Amoxicillin is safe in 22 weeks gestation of pregnancy.But it may not be the most suitable antibiotic in sore throat.This is because most often..it is a viral infection in sorethroat.Amoxycillin will worsen the general clinical condition if it is associated with Infectious mononucleosis or Glandular fever.One will have a very severe maculopapular rash,besides sorethroat,lethargy and cervical lymphadenopathy.
