Default Re: I need someones advice

Depends how far along you are really. As far as actual pre-scription medication I would bet the best they will give you is some form of codine and tylenol. I was given hyrdrocodone and also a beta blocker once I was further along and they knew my baby was going to be big.

As far as meds from the local drug store. Tylenol , Motrin, and you can take excedrin but not if your in your 3rd tri-mester or have a high risk of pre-term or miscarriages since aspirin thins the blood.

I have suffered with migraines since I was a child and had them 10' x's worse during my pregnancies so I totally feel your pain. However I am not a doctor and really reccomend calling your OB office and talking to a nurse to get a list of medications you can take at your local drug store and if they are too bad see your OB he can prescribe you something safe for you and what term you are at in your pregnancy
