Ceroxitum in pregnancy

Resolved Question:

My wife is 30yrs old and is almost 8 months pregnant.
Her last menstural date was 11th May 2013.

My wife's doctor has prescribed Ceroxitum-500 for some infection she is having, probably in uterus area.
Will it affect the foetus/mother in any way?

Hello,
Thanks for writing to DoctorSpring.com with your health concern.

Ceroxitum contains Cefuroxime. This antibiotic is safe for use during pregnancy.

Particularly, towards the end of the last trimester, all major organ systems are formed, and a large majority of drugs are safe for use by the mother.

Do not worry, as the antibiotic / medicine will cause no harm to the baby or the mother.

All the best.
Please feel free to discuss further.
