Hey ladies, is taking Tylenol cold medicine good to take during pregnancy. I have recently come down with a cold and I was just wondering what are some safe medicines to take. Since it's over the weekend and I can't contact my doctor...

Usually any of the "cold and flu" meds are not safe. What are your symptoms?
Throat lozenges for sore throat
Plain Sudafed is good for congestion
Benadryl for sleep
Plain mucinex for congestion
Tylenol for fever
Robitussin CF (NOT DM) for cough
Hot decaf tea works awesome
Honey and lemon works great too for throat
Hope you feel better!
