If the ER gave it to you it should be safe to take. However if your not fully comfortable you should call your OB. Actually, call anyway so they know your on it. If they don't want you taking that then they should call you in a different prescription.

It's a Sulfamethoxazole and contra-indicated (not recommended). It may, however, be the only choice.

I would never second guess a Physician BUT I would call my OB/GYN and ask.
