35 weeks pregnant, horrible lingering cough from bronchitis. nothing seems to help, doc out of town, any advice on what to take? been 4 weeks.

Z pack: If it were me i would seek out another clinic or physician who can prescribe a z pack or similar medication for the bronchitis. Pregnancy lowers your immune system, and if you've been suffering for 4 weeks, it's time to add an antibioitic. Maybe even a little steroid. I'll let your primary care doctor be the judge of your prescription, but defnitely be seen and get a prescription.
