Hi Jyoti,
Thanks for posting your query.
Congratulations on your pregnancy. You should gradually decrease taking Doxinate plus after 12 weeks and completely stop it by 16 to 18 weeks.
You need not have to take Doxinate plus whole of your pregnancy. Please consider stopping it slowly.
As such, it is a safe drug in pregnancy. It does not cause harm.
Hope this helps.
