Is Cetil Intake Safe In Pregnancy For Treatment Of UTI?
I am 25 years old and 9 months pregnant. My urine report indicates the presence of pus cells and traces of albumin. Mr doctor has prescribed Cetil-500, twice daily for 5 days. I want to know if this is an antibiotic, and is it safe to take it during pregnancy. Also, is the swelling of my feet and hands related to the pus cells in my urine?

Hi dear
I can understand your concern
in my opinion the antibiotic given to you is called cefuroxim
it is a safe antibiotic in pregnacy
the swelling in feet is due to growth of baby which is compressing your inferior vena ceva
so the best way to reduce swelling is to lie In left side position
ok
Hope I am able to satisfy your query
