What are safe cold medicines to take while in the first trimester?

Question

It’s been a while since I’ve been pregnant and I’m starting to get sick. Sore throat and stuff so what kind of medicine can I take.

Answer

I was told tylenol and a few cough drops nothing else. I was sick with the flu for 2 weeks just gotta rid out that sickness.

Answer

In the UK they say the only safe medication is paracetamol. Maybe call and ask you Dr? X

Answer

They told me robitussin is safe, but it has to be the basic one. Only one main ingredient. I’ve been sick for the past couple of weeks and was prescribed amoxicillin and Claritin. I’m still sick but that’s cause of the increased hormones causing me to have more mucus.

Answer

It’d be worth your while to get the flu jab too. I got it at 4 weeks pregnant in November & haven’t had any cold, flu, sniffles, sore throat or the likes. My first time getting the flu jab & will definitely get it every winter now

Answer

Youre not supposed to take cold medicines. And btw the common cold has to run its course so any medicine isnt a cure it's a comfort thing. So if your throat is hurting or you're congested try a humidifier and hot tea with lemon and honey. Honey soothes a cough and lemon can help a sore throat.

Answer

My doctor gave me this list of medications that are safe to take. There's not much that's safe to take for colds. 
A home remedy for sore throat and cough that are safe are cinnamon tea sweetened with honey (literally just boil a cinnamon stick and then add honey) you can use milk or water, whichever you prefer. 
You can also just have hot water with honey and lemon. 
Fluids and electrolytes are your best friend.
