Anything by Tylenol.  That's all that I know of.....All of my friends who were sick during pregnancy had to suffer b/c they said that Tylenol is like taking jelly beans!  LOL

Tylenol cold and sinus works wonders and is safe for you and the baby!!! You can get the day and night pack too so you can still rest at night. Its wonderful. :-) Hope you feel better soon.

That I dont remember for sure, but I think my doc said they were fine. Try the halls strawberry flavor, they taste good and they work.

Anything Tylenol is fine.  Sudafed is OK after 12 weeks.  Benedryl is OK after 12 weeks. As far as I know cough drops are perfectly fine.  Tylenol severe head congestion (daytime and nighttime) works pretty good.  I have cold now and that is what I am taking.
