I took Zyrtec allergy (not just Zyrtec, apparently there is a difference) everyday of my last pregnancy. Doc said it was ok, but you should clear it with your doc to be sure!
If you google "is Zyrtec (or insert any drug name) safe during pregnancy " it tells you the rating and what that means... Zyrtec says, category B, no evidence of risk in humans Ha! I love that they clarified human...
I take a Zyrtec every morning and Benadryl every night to help with my hives. My OB and dermatologist both say it's perfectly safe. They also mentioned Claritin being safe as well, but I have yet to take it. I hope that helps!
yes my doctor said it's perfectly fine, including the generic brand as well.
ALSO- a super helpful and fun app called Ovia, had a medication and food lookup which tells you if it's safe and then on what scale is it safe or not. highly reccomend the app!
