Pregnant and sore throat. what medication can i take?

Dr. can check throat: New throat pain can be from a strep throat infection (antibiotics are needed, and can usually be taken in pregnancy), a cold or influenza (antibiotics usually not used, but can take Tamiflu if influenza), or from some other cause such as allergies or irritants. Usually, a person sees a doctor if her sore throat is bothersome, recurrent, or doesn't go away quickly.
