Pregnant women must take anti-cold medications seriously. If it is a common cold, the safest and easiest way for pregnant women is to rest at home, drink plenty of water, make sure to eat and drink, regulate the body and improve the immune system until the cold is cured. In case of fever or more serious symptoms of the cold, it is always necessary to send the patient to the doctor in time and never take medication on your own. In addition, pregnant women can consider using less toxic and less harmful herbs, such as Dasianthus, Qiangwu, Jinyinhua, Banlangen and Lianxiao, which have heat detoxification and antiviral effects. Pregnant women suffering from colds, with or without medication, must be treated with caution and it is best to have medical guidance before proceeding with proper medication. In the absence of clear evidence of bacterial infections such as tonsillitis, hypertension, cough, yellow sputum and sepsis in pregnant women, antibiotic drugs should not be used if possible. Since antibiotics can act on the fetus through the placenta, the risk of fetal illness is 20% to 40%. The use of cough medicines and anti-sputum medicines is generally safe, but anti-cough medicines containing iodine preparations are not suitable for pregnant women (the specific medicines mentioned in this document should be prescribed on the basis of a face-to-face consultation with a specialist).
