What should I do if I took medication before getting pregnant?

Patient's question:

Hello Doctor! After my period ended on the 24th of last month, I took the "Long Blood Stone Capsules" prescribed by the doctor for about 20 days. On the 25th of this month, I found out I was pregnant. I would like to know if taking this medication will have any effects?
If it does, I want to know what specific effects it might have. If I want to keep this child, is it possible? What should I do? Thank you?

Doctor's answer:

Hello: It belongs to traditional Chinese medicine and has little impact on the fetus. If you want this child now, regular follow-up is sufficient, and it's also important to keep a relaxed mood.
Acute and chronic toxicity tests have shown that Longhu capsules have no significant toxicity. Generally, doctors will advise women with high-risk signs during prenatal examinations to pay attention to warmth and avoid coldness. Additionally, patients should also ensure a comfortable environment, which is beneficial for rest. Wishing the patient a healthy delivery.
