My doctor said vicodin is a no go in pregnancy. The only prescription pain meds she prescribes is hydrocodone and tylenol 3 but can only get 10 pills at a time.
I had a double ear infection and they gave me tylenol with codeine and said they wont give anything more then that. Thar night have just been my urgent care.
I was just prescribed Vicodin and took it. I'm worried but I had too... I hope everything is OK... I would hope they wouldn't give it to me if it was super dangerous. Its not like I'm abusing it.
I would assume that a doctor wouldn't knowingly give you something that could harm the baby. But what might be safe in one doctors eyes might not be safe to another.
My Dr actually showed me in his medical drug book that has ratings for preg where vicodin is rated bad for pregnancy it's a c out of an a thru d rating. Which makes it dangerous. He said dr's do but he would not as he wouldn't take that risk. Tylonal was the only safe thing. I had 4 ribs out at the time- but agreed with him. Would not take that gamble. My brother has birth defects because of pain medications my mom's dr gave her as safe. Not for me.
Yeah the brand name on my prescription for hydrocodone is lortab. I haven't taken 1 pill yet because i haven't had a lot of pain since it was prescribed.
I had a very bad earache and they told me I couldn't take anything my dr. had said tylenol but then he asked me how far along I was and I was about 8 or 9 weeks and then he said it was too early that I wasn't even 3mo so that I shudnt take any medication....ughh I was so mad I had a cold and an earache at the same time it was horrible
Blegh. I can't take it even when I'm not pregnant. There's heroin addicts on both sides of my family so I stay away from opiates. Stuff like vicoden and oxycontin (I was prescribed both for a bad back and later for wisdom teeth removal) make me shaky and sick when I don't have them. Scary!
