When I was preggo my dr and pharmacist said no to halls, I don't know if it was cause I am a severe asthmatic or the pregnancy.  The pharmacist told me to gargle with salt water and it actually worked but I'm sure Halls would have  tasted better!!  Hope you feel better soon!!

Because of sinus problems I practically live on halls cough drops during my pregnancies.  They help to sooth my sinuses and keep me from gagging from all the drainage.  I've never had any issues from it.

yup I had a nasty cold with my dd and the Dr and pharmacist said they are a ok. One thing that really seemed to help me as well was use a humidifier at night in your room and put a few drops of eucalyptus in the water, eucalyptus naturally kills bacteria plus it helped me breath easier at night. Mint tea before bed helped too.

Halls are fine to use, Tylenol cold products are fine to use, Vitamin C, and any none DM Robitussin products. Just take the amount it recommends you take, and no more than 4,000 mg of Tylenol a day. Feel better soon!
