I'm currently pregnant and considering taking M2 tone, but I'm really worried about whether it could cause a miscarriage. Could you please let me know if it's safe during pregnancy?

Tetanus Injection After a Cut: Guidance
Tetanus Risk Assessment:
- Dirty or rusty object: Since the cut was from a kitchen knife, the risk of tetanus is relatively low.
- Blood exposure: Blood was present, but this doesn't necessarily increase the tetanus risk.
Tetanus Injection Recommendations:
- Up-to-date tetanus vaccination: If you've received a tetanus booster within the past 10 years, you likely don't need another injection.
- Clean and minor wound: Given the cut is from a clean kitchen knife and is minor, a tetanus injection might not be necessary.
Precautions and Next Steps:
- Clean and dress the wound: Immediately clean the cut with soap and water, apply antibiotic ointment, and cover with a bandage.
- Monitor for infection: Watch for signs of infection, such as redness, swelling, increased pain, or pus.
