My throat is so sore since yesterday and i just want some relief. Normally i pop a strepsil without thinking but now im 11 weeks and scared to take anything on my own. Will ask my gynac too but wanted to know if any of u had it.
Beta for a mild sore throat, warm water gargle with salt or a little honey in warm water helped us at home. These are gentle and safe. But before any tablet or lozenge, do ask your doctor.
Honestly even over the counter lozenges should be okayed by your doctor in pregnancy. I stuck to home remedies like honey and warm fluids for my throat. If the throat is bad, a quick call to the gynac is best.
I wouldnt take any lozenge without asking, even simple looking ones. When I had a sore throat I just did warm salt water gargle and honey instead. For anything medicated, please check with your gynac first.
