Brief Answer:
No harm to either mother or baby
Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX
I have read your query. I understand your concern towards your wife.
Firstly, Congratulations on the pregnancy.
Norflox is a drug (schedule C drug) routinely not used in pregnancy. It does cause adverse effects in animals when given in high dosages. There are no trials done in pregnant humans to confirm the same. The use of this drug in pregnancy is advised if the benefit is more than risks.
What I mean to say is that your wife has taken around 10 tablets of Norflox. This is definitely not that high dose to cause any harm to the baby. So, please relax.
Also, Proxyvon (schedule B drug) does not cause any damage to fetus in early pregnancy. Therefore, this drug will not affect your wife and the baby.
In addition, she has taken the drugs only one time and not several times in her first trimester.
In my view, this is not going to affect the baby or the mother. Be rest assured that there will be no side effects or deformation to the baby.
An anomaly scan done at 20 weeks of pregnancy can identify problems, if any at all.
Hope this helps you. Let me know if you have more queries.
Regards,
No harm to either mother or baby
