Sore Throat...Medicine?

I have a really sore throat and I was wondering if there are any type of medicines that are ok to use or if I have to just tough it out? Also...on a different topic..I heard it is really frowned upon to eat boxed foods like mac and cheese because of sodium. So I bought soup instead and it has just as much sodium. Is it really not ok to eat?

Ask your doctor for an OK list of pregnancy medications.  Mine gave me their website and I downloaded it on my phone
