I've heard sudafed is safe. Anything with decongestant is not. Look it up on ************ if in doubt. They have everything on there!

My doctor told me any of the Tylenol cold meds are safe. I just called the other day about it.

Robitussin dm non alcoholic and sudafed are the safest during pregnancy and helped a lot when I had the flu last week, really bad, but hope you feel better! :)

Your doctor should provide you with a list of things that are safe to take during pregnancy. My doctor told me I could take pretty much anything just not to take it often and only take it when really needed. I believe you can take theraflu and robitussin.. I lost my paper but like I said he told me I could take anything as long as it was very little and in moderation.
