Hi, Nisha! Congrats on the pregnancy!
And yes, this is a generic for the antibiotic Augmentin, which is considered safe during pregnancy and you are correct, if you have some type of infection, that would be far more dangerous to your baby than taking this medication.
But it may cause you some side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea.
Learn more Augmentin details here.
Is there anything else I can help with?
