Antihistamines, such as Benadryl, are considered safe during pregnancy. The decongestant guafenesin, which thins mucous secretions, is also safe. If you have a cough, plain old Robitussin DM is fine, but avoid the multi-symptom cold formulas. For pain, take Tylenol. Do not take aspirin, advil, or aleve for pain. Of course, inhaling hot steam, salt water gargles, chicken soup, and bed rest are great home remedies and perfectly safe during pregnancy.

What is medicine for colds?

There are tons of different medicines for colds but I will tell you from experience none of them work I use these cups you fill with water then add this round thing and it makes vapor - I forget what it was called, but I would say tissues work miracles so get some. The best advice on medicine for colds may be the old answer given by country doctors : "If you have a cold, take great care of yourself, and take the best medicine you can find. If you do, the cold will be all gone in seven days; if you don't it will last a whole week." Seriously, colds are caused by a virus. There is no real treatment for a virus infection. Some 'cold medicines' will alleviate one or two of the symptoms, but the actual illness stays there for its usual week.
