Patient's question:
I took oseltamivir phosphate granules for the flu. Five packets were taken the day before yesterday, and I haven't had a fever since. I'm still taking it today and have taken a total of 20 packets. I took it four times in total. Do I need to take it today? I'm currently 30 weeks and 3 days pregnant, and I'm worried about it affecting the baby, so I'm not taking it. I don't have a fever anymore.Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described, you haven't had a fever for two days and can stop taking the medication. It is recommended to continue drinking plenty of water, eating more fruits and vegetables after stopping the medication. Avoid going to crowded places to prevent reinfection with the virus. You are already 30 weeks pregnant, and the medication has little interference with the baby, but you should not use medication on your own. You need to consult a doctor about what medication to take. The above is the advice for the question "Can I still take the medication if I am pregnant after taking the flu medication?" I hope it helps you, and wish you good health!
