Is it harmful to the pregnant child to take medicine when sick?

Patient's question:

On December 2, 2018, my period came, and at that time I was sick and took Tong Nao capsules. On January 10, 2019, I found out I was pregnant. Can the child be kept?

Doctor's answer:

Based on your description, if the medication does not specify that pregnant women should stop using it, it generally does not cause significant interference. However, the potential interference of the medication is uncertain. It is recommended to have regular prenatal check-ups to monitor the child's growth and development, and this decision should be made by both partners. The above is advice on this issue. We hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
