is merc cor safe during pregnancy

Hi, I have been taking Merc Cor 200 for ulcerative colitis. It has been really helpful. I wanted to know if Merc Cor is safe during pregnancy? Mercurius Corrosivus sounds it is derived from metal mercury, does it mean taking merc cor is injecting mercury in body, will this harm fetus? I am really concerned, any response from personal or professional exprience will help. Thanks.

**There is not a single molecule of Mercury in Mercurius corrosivus 200c dilution. So there is no question of any risk of ingestion of mercury in body. Homeo remedies based on a particular medicinal substance don't have a single molecule of that substance in case of 30c potency and higher potencies.

Thanks for the insight. No mercury is good news. I am still searching wether Merc cor is safe during pregnancy. I don't want to stop as it is really helping my UC, but I don't want to continue if it not considered safe during pregnancy. I did not find much on internet regarding this.

Also wanted to add... I have read following statement at many places in Merc Cor description: 'It is one of the most frequently indicated remedies in the albuminuria of pregnancy and a very useful remedy when gout is present'. Does this statement qualifies Mer Cor as pregnancy safe? Thanks.
