Hi,
Thanks for your question.
Generally speaking all medicines should be avoided in earl pregnancy unless absolutely necessary.
However, Chlorpheniramine is considered safe in pregnancy & can be used if prescribed by a doctor for some reason.
As far as your case is concerned I have strong doubts that you have had an allergic reaction to the progesterone capsule, & it need to be stopped. Please discuss this with your doctor first.
Hope you get well soon.
