Good day, i am pregnant and have a terrible cough that feels like it's blocking my airway, do i need to take an antibiotic?

Cough: If it's a hacking, dry cough following a recent head cold and there is no fever, chills,sweats, wheezing,chest pain or shortness of breath, ask your obstetrician to recommend a nonprescription cough suppressant syrup that is safe during pregnancy. The presence of copious sputum or the other symptoms would necessitate an examination by a physician.
