yeah, paracetamol is, but not ibuprofen, and don't take aspirin without medical advice.

Been told by Dr and pharmacist that it's the only one which is safe.

Midwife recommended I take paracetemol for SPD ? it's safe. If you have the NHS Pregnancy Book, there is advice on p33 about what medicines you can take for minor ailments (see link if not).

Yes its fine.

I have SPD and have been taking it every 4-5 hours as I was in so much pain.
