Acetaminophen: Is the safest pain medication in pregnancy. Often sore throats are due to post-nasal drip. You can use saline nasal spray to clear out the mucus. Most other over-the-counter cough/cold medicines are considered safe in pregnancy, but there have been few studies to prove their safety or danger. Avoid Ibuprofen or naproxen.
