Does taking medicine have an effect on children?

Patient's question:

After cohabitation, I took Ofloxacin and Anti-Cervicitis Tablets for two weeks, followed by Huajiao Pills and Sanhuang Tablets. I had an allergic reaction to the Sanhuang Tablets. My period was delayed by 6 days, and I took a test but it was negative. Now, after a delay of 14 days, the test showed I am pregnant. Will these medications have an impact on the child?

Doctor's answer:

According to your description, you took the medicine around the time of fertilization when the sperm and egg combined to form a zygote. The embryo had not yet developed, and in this case, it is highly unlikely to have any impact on the fetus. Please rest assured. It is recommended to pay attention to rest during the early pregnancy, avoid overexertion, and stay away from harmful environments. After conception, take folic acid regularly for the first three months, and undergo regular prenatal check-ups. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery, a healthy body, and a wonderful life.
