Medically speaking, after conception, it takes approximately one to two weeks for the fertilized egg to migrate down the fallopian tube and become embedded in the nice, moist, thick enodometrium lining in your uterus. I don't believe your foetus was exposed to the medications mentioned as the blastocyte had yet to establish a connection to your body by snuggling down in the lining and implanting there. But, it is always better to be on the safe
side,so I would notify my Obstetrician of the possible exposure.
Peace,
