Can pregnant women take cephalexin for anti-inflammatory treatment?

Cefixime is an antibiotic. When pregnant women have a cold or a urinary tract infection, the following symptoms are common during pregnancy, such as extremely high blood counts or some infection markers such as high C-reactive protein or procalcitonin, and the patient has severe respiratory symptoms, then they can take some cefixime, but it is generally not recommended to take it for a long time. In cases of severe inflammation, you may consider taking some cefixime. The use of antibiotics is now more strictly controlled.

Some pregnant women consult their doctors whether they can take antiviral drugs for colds and fevers. Since the pregnant woman only has a cough, runny nose, and a slightly sore throat, she does not need to take any medicine and can go home and rest. However, if a pregnant woman has a high fever, and her blood count and C-reactive protein are very high during blood tests, and her throat is very painful and unbearable, she can take some antiviral drugs, which is not very relevant. However, if you have a simple runny nose or sneezing, there is a high possibility of viral infection, so it is recommended not to eat it.

Many women think that they cannot take any medicines after pregnancy, while some women, on the contrary, take some medicines unreliably during pregnancy. Can you take oral anti-inflammatory drugs during pregnancy? First of all, some antiviral drugs can be taken orally or intravenously during pregnancy, such as penicillin, cephalosporin or erythromycin antibiotics can be used during pregnancy.

Secondly, some antibiotics are prohibited from use during pregnancy, such as macrolides or quinolones, which can easily affect the structure of the fetus. It is not that antiviral drugs cannot be used during pregnancy, but the conditions for using drugs must be mastered. The general principle of using drugs is: first, try not to use drugs as much as possible. Second, use oral medications as much as possible to avoid intravenous drips. Third, take oral anti-inflammatory drugs in the short term at the best possible dose. Fourth, we must master the conditions for using antiviral drugs to prevent their indiscriminate use.
