I'm pregnant and have been having alot of sore throat and coughing. i don't know what type of medicine i can take, since i'm pregnant?

Maybe None: most of upper respiratory tract infections are caused by viruses and do not need any specific treatments other than good hydration. If you have sore throat and fever, we need to do simple test to rule out strep throat that needs to be treated with antibiotics
