I always took Extra Strength. It was the only thing that worked when I got killer migraines while pregnant. I would usually take Excedrin but couldn't.

I took extra strength - I was never told not to.

My doctor actually said 2 extra strength is fine.

My general rule is to try to take as little as possible -- no reason to take extra strength unless you know that regular doesn't do the job!

Re: Tylenol....regular or extra strength

Anyone take tylenol with codine while preggo?

I just had 2 wisdom teeth removed this afternoon and filled the prescription, but am trying to hold out on taking any of the pills...did some research online, nothing solid for or against, just hoping for some additional input...

THANKS!

I also had a wisdom tooth extracteed while pregnant. My doc told me to make sure the dentist didn't use epinephrine in the novocaine and to just take Tylenol as needed. I'd ask the doc first about using the Rx tylenol with codeine. I wouldn't take it, but be sure to ask if you really need it.
