Answer

No. You need the Sudafed that's behind the pharmacy counter. It has different ingredients.

Answer

Nope! You should call ur Dr cause i believe the only safe meds I’d Tylenol , sadly u may just have to suck it up, use hot water towels to try and clear ur passage way, or a hot shower breathe in the steam, and get an Air Purifier but that’s it...🤷🏽‍♀️

Answer

I had the flu in January. I thought it was a terrible cold but after 4days I felt like I was going to die! Went to my OB and they tested me for strept and flu and the flu cake back positive. I was over 25wks so my doctor said Sudafed PE would be fine even night time Tylenol since I was out of first trimester.

Answer

No to anything PE!!!

Answer

It’s on my approved list

Answer

Sudafed itself is okay, but it’s not about the brand, it’s that it’s made with pseudoephedrine. You have to ask for it at the pharmacy, they keep it behind the counter.

Answer

My approved list has Sudafed PE listed as safe.

Answer

I was told by my DR not to take Sudafed, it works by decreasing blood flow so congestion goes away, which when you're pregnant, your need as much blood flow as possible.
