i had a cold about a month ago, but im 30 weeks now. my doctor told me to take tyneol cold. and it didnt really work for me because i only took one pill at a time but my cold disappeared within the week. so that was really sweet

This is my handout from the OB on whats safe.

Cold Symptoms/Fever:

(Call the office if you have a temperature over 100.4 for 8 hours)

Tylenol, Regular or Extra Strength

Sudafed

Benadryl

Chloraseptic spray

Throat lozenges

Actifed

Chlor-Trimeton

Robitussin (for cough)

Tylenol Cold & Sinus


Thanks exactly how it reads, hope this helps!!  Feel better soon!

Feel better friend.  I was sick last week couldn't breath...got shot and went with the Actifed.  It worked pretty good for me.  Robitussin was good, but it tastes nasty! (don't do that one if you have nausea!)
