Taking Ibuprofen While Pregnant

Taking Ibuprofen Medication is a concern to most expecting moms and for good reason. Some medications can cause serious problems to an unborn child while others have no known effects. For this reason, it is best to discuss all medications with your doctor before taking them.

Most doctors agree that acetaminophen, or Tylenol, is the best choice of pain reliever for pregnant women. While ibuprofen is not known to cause problems during the first and second trimesters, it is unsafe for women to take during the last three months of pregnancy. It has been shown to cause problems for unborn babies that late in development.

While pregnant, try to stick with Tylenol as your pain reliever. But if it doesn’t cure your aches and pains, it is probably okay to take ibuprofen as long as you are not in the third trimester of pregnancy.
