Nearly 22 weeks pregnant and have a sore throat, shall i take beechams (flu and cold)?
On the pack it says consult doctor if you're pregnant but its Sunday and I've tried home remedies, and my throats still very sore. Any advice? Or any suggestions for the throat? (I've tried gargling warm salted water) Thanks.

Orange juice doesn't do anything for a sore throat.
Get Ricola... get the menthol... very helpful for sore throat

well if you drink 3 teaspoons of honey every hour it clears up your throat

Don't take it, you shouldn't take anything - they will all tell you that.
I thought it was amusing that I wasn't allowed to take a darn thing for my terrible cold, but as soon as the baby was born, he was allowed to have the medicine I wasn't.
Still, best be safe then sorry, take nothing but honey and warm water. Stick some lemon in if it makes you feel better. The honey is good for you and you'll at least feel like you're doing something.
Sorry you're sick :( congrats you're pregnant though :)
