Its safe

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Zinnat or cefuroxime is FDA pregnancy category B drug, which means that it is safe for the fetus in the first trimester.
It is not known to cause any adverse effects on the fetus if taken in first trimester.
So, you can take it after a doctor's prescription.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
