If you are pregnant, it is absolutely not recommended that you take any drugs without medical consultation first. While your obstetrician gynecologist is the best physician to advise you on what drugs you should be taking or not, in this case, you must consult your regular family doctor, who will be in a better position to tell you what not to take as well as why. But the general basic rule is quite clear - no antibiotics during pregnancy. This can cause untold harm to the baby, and is also not safe for the mother when she is pregnant to take antibiotics.
Under most circumstances, the drug you have mentioned is administered in cases of severe bacterial infection of some sort. It is usually prescribed for throat, lung, skin or a urinary tracts infection of some sort. It is important for you to know that if you are suffering from any of these infections, there are simpler solutions available for you as opposed to taking strong antibiotics. For any infection, you can start consuming large quantities of turmeric powder in your daily diet. This has an antiseptic nature and will help to heal you from within. While this process may be slow, you can be assured that it is sure. You can also begin taking a glass of hot milk every night with a teaspoon of turmeric powder added to it. This will speed up cure considerably. If you have a surface infection such as a kin infection of some sort or a urinary tract infection, then you can apply fresh yogurt to it topically. The active bacteria in yogurt will actively feed off the infection and finish it from the roots. Just make sure that you use fresh, unsweetened and unflavored yogurt for this purpose, as any other kind will not work.
