I'm seven weeks pregnant and with out thinking took some Pepto Bismol for my upset stomach. Only after did I think of it as an OTC. I've read that some Dr.'s say its okay and some say no...any opinions?

I ALSO TOOK IT RIGHT NOW AND FOUND OUT THAT SHOULDN'T TAKE IT. MY DOC HAD GIVEN ME A LIST AND IT SAID IT WAS OKY BUT THEN THE BLOGS SAY OTHER WISE BUT HOPEFULLY WE WILL BE OKY I AM 7 AND HALF. I BELIEVE THAT IS BAD IF YOU TAKE IT ALOT BUT I RATHER NOT TAKE IT ANYMORE JUST TO BE ON THE SAFE SIDE.

Hello there,
First of all congratulations on your pregnancy and I hope that everything will end up just fine until your delivery.
Considering your question it would be best to avoid any kind of medications (I believe that only Paracetamol is allowed but you need to check this with your doctor). So you took pepto bismol one time and you will avoid it in the future, at least while you are pregnant.
If you have problems with heartburn it would be wise to adjust your nutrition and watch out on your diet because pregnancy could make your problem even worse.
Talk with your doctor about this and he will probably give you some solution. Keep us posted about your condition.
