My friend is about 7 weeks pregnant and just found out that she has strep throat.....the docotr prescribed amoxicillian and said it was safe to take.....did anybody else ever have an infection and need to take antibiotics when pregnant......especially in there first trimester? Is it safe for her to take the medication. Thanks

amoxicillin is very safe - but even strep is self limiting and will go away eventually without it - but really, it's a safe one

I took amoxicillan when I thought I was pregnant so I did a lot of research - it's perfectly safe while pregnant. No worries!

I took amox. twice in my pregancy so far. Once in the first trimester for a crazy ear thing I got and once in the third trimester for a bad sinus infection.
