My wife kept taking primolut-n for five days for regularise the three months delayed period after the pregnancy test showing negative, but after 15 days not started period, so meet with the doctor and checked blood, that time result came positive. She did taken 15 tablets without knowing that she was pregnant and now when her pregnancy test came positive we are very worried if the pill is going to have an adverse effect on the baby or it can cause any deformities to the fetus please answer it for us. Another factor is that she was fever around 5 days on first week of april and taken paracetamol tablet at that time .Is there any problem?Is any problem to continue this pregnency?Please advise sir.Thanks in advance LMP 5.3.2017 GA 9weeks

Hello dear, thank you for using HCM. Iread your question and understand your concern .Use of primolut-n during the first trimester of pregnancy may be associated with congenital malformations in male and female fetuses and virilization of the external genitalia of the female fetus. AU TGA pregnancy category D: Drugs which have caused, are suspected to have caused or may be expected to cause, an increased incidence of human fetal malformations or irreversible damage. These drugs may also have adverse pharmacological effects.
fever is a side effect of primolut -n but i cant say for sure if the fever was as a result of taking primolut-n. Acetaminophen in both OTC and prescription products and the risk of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in children born to women who took this medicine at any time during pregnancy.Hope my answer was helpful. Best regards, Dr Xhufka.
