What can I take while pregnant to help with nasal congestion associated with a cold?

You can take mometasone (Nasonex) nasal spray while pregnant to help with nasal congestion related to a cold. It is safe to use because it only acts locally. Another option is a nasal decongestant spray (such as Dristan, Otrivin) for a short period (7 days or less) due to its local effect.
