Here is a useful and comprehensive list of medications and possible treatments you can consider for the management of common ailments in pregnancy: http://singacare.com/management-of-common-ailments-in-pregnancy/ For a quick reference (from this website: http://www.newagepregnancy.com/taking-medications-during-pregnancy/) Here is a list of medications safe for consumption during pregnancy: - Paracetamol – the pain reliever of choice during pregnancy. It is completely safe in pregnancy. - Cold medications – most antihistamines such as chlorpheniramine, clarityne, pseudoephedrine are safe during pregnancy. - Cough syrups – most are safe to consume during pregnancy. - Allergy – almost any of the allergy medicines are safe during pregnancy. - Constipation – drink more water, increase fibers. If constipation is bad, any of the stool softeners are safe. - Diarrhoea – Imodium is safe during pregnancy. - Yeast infections – any of the OTC medicines are safe during pregnancy. Diflucan is technically safe during pregnancy. - Sore throat – any kind of lozenges is safe in pregnancy. And here’s the list of what to avoid: - Diet medications – are not safe during pregnancy. Dieting during pregnancy is also strongly discouraged as fetal growth can be affected. - Vitamin A (Oral) – used to treat severe acne, oral vitamin A (Roaccutane, Acnotin) is strictly contraindicated during pregnancy due to the high risk of fetal teratogenicity. - Antibiotics – Certain antibiotics such as tetracycline is contraindicated during pregnancy due to possible effects on dentition in the child. - Pain killers belonging to the Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug group – these should be avoided during pregnancy. - Herbal remedies – some herbs can have harmful effects to the fetus. There is lack of data on herb usage during pregnancy. A check with the herbalist/Chinese physician is advised before consuming herbs. Still, I would advise that you check with your doctor first before taking any medications or herbs. Hope this helps!
This website has a list of over-the-counter medicine that are low risk for expecting mommies. Of course, it's always better to be safe, so check with your doctor before taking any kind of medicine during pregnancy. Don't take more than the recommended dose and, if possible, avoid taking anything during your first trimester, when your developing baby is most vulnerable. http://www.babycenter.com/0_chart-over-the-counter-medicine-during-pregnancy_1486462.bc
