Safe remedy for sore throat

[cajole]

I'm 36 years old with 10 week pregnancy. I got cold and cough due to weather change. Cough is really bothering me and I have pain in my throat. My doc advise me not to take any antibiotic. Please suggest alternate safe remedy for the problem

Antibiotics are for bacterial infections not for viruses, just so ya know.
Drink water and hot teas with lemon and honey.
Not much else you can do for it...if you develop a fever over 102 call your doctor though that's unsafe during pregnancy

Gargle with salt water 3 times. Water being warm. Honey about 15 mins later.Do this several times a day. It does a great job knocking sickness out.  Vapo rub the feet   chest and under nose. Before bed.Ask the doc about the cough if it persists miserably. Dont take certain medicines people suggest Unless you ask your doctor. Feel better soon!

Pineapple juice (I actually eat pineapple and cottage cheese) for the cough. Try Benedryl for the throat.
