Safe: Expigen syrup can be used safely in pregnancy. Its ingredients have been shown to have no negative effect on the baby or the mother during pregnancy. Follow the directions closely and drink lots of fluids. Use for the shortest time possible due to its dehydrating effect.

Cough syrup: I'm of the opinion that all medications, including nonprescription ones, during pregnancy should be ok'd by your obstetrician. I'd rather you consider asking about Robitussin expectorant if you want to loosen phlegm or robittussinDM if you want to quiet a cough. Your pharmacist can also be helpful in recommending a cough syrup for pregnant women, but I still recommend checking with your obstetrici
