Does Cifran During Pregnancy Affect The Fetus?
Hi, I'm 25 and my pregnancy is 3 weeks. I had taken cifran for 10 days (2 tabs 500 g a day) (from October 4th till October 13th). My last period started on October 11th. Estimated date of conceiving is October 20-21st. Could you please tell me if it is dangerous for the fetus? Thank you.

Hello ma'am and welcome.
Cifran containing the active ingredient ciprofloxacin is contraindicated in pregnant women and children. It can cause harm to the fetus, but this is not always the case. Please speak to your doctor about this. You could also go about extensive monitoring of growth and develolment of your baby along with the triple marker check to make sure all is well.
Hope this helps
Best wishes.
