Iam 25weeks(6months) PREGNANT. Iam suffering from severe wisdom tooth pain. The tooth is severely infected and has cavity and hole in it.
Currently iam taking combiflam tablet but the pain is not subsiding.
Before pregnancy i have taken TYMOLYTIC ap tablet. Can i take the same tablet now since i have very severe pain and cant tolerate it anymore. Here there is lockdown so no doctors are available for consultation.
However i consulted two doctors via phone call. One saying it is safe to take in pregnancy other says to avoid it and take combiflam itself. Since iam taking combiflam and i have severe pain, iam urging to take Tymoltic tablet. (i have taken 5 combiflam since yesterday but no improvement)
Please guide me.. And clear me whether can i take TYMOLYTIC ap during pregnancy or not? Will it harm my unborn baby?
Attaching tablet pic for reference.

DO NOT take any kind of PAILKILLER. ITS STRICTLY CONTRAINDICATED DURING PREGNANCY AND LACTATION.
Take ONLY PARACETAMOL 650 to reduce pain. Maximum 3 times per day.
You can consult directly with me, for more specific guidance as you mostly need antibiotic for complete relief.
