I have a cold, congested nose, and sore throat. I am 35 weeks pregnant, what can I take?

If you are 35 weeks pregnant and experiencing nasal congestion and a sore throat, there are some safe options you can consider. You can try using saline nasal spray to help with nasal congestion and dryness. Nasal decongestant sprays like Dristan or Otrivin can provide more immediate relief, but be sure to limit use to 3 days to avoid rebound congestion. If those don't work, you can try oral decongestants like Tylenol Sinus or Sudafed as a last resort in the second or third trimester. For a sore throat, you can take acetaminophen or use throat lozenges like Cepacol. Resting and gargling with salt water can also help soothe your symptoms. If you have more questions, don't hesitate to ask.
