Hello Dear,

Thanks for writing to us. Followings are my comments:

Yes, CETZINE tablet is quite SAFE during first trimester of pregnancy. It is FDA approved pregnancy category B drug (i.e. NO risk in non-human studies).

It is anti-histamine and used to treat seasonal allergic manifestation, common cold etc. Take the medicine with proper dose or as per your doctor's advice.

Hope, I have answered your query. Wish your good health and successful motherhood.
