check the label, as different cough syrups contain different things. Also cough don't normally actually work. If I were in your shoes I wouldn't use any medication apart from paracetamol

Me too - I would not use any medication, instead I would buy something to suck on made out of natural herbs or have heated milk + garlic+ honey.

Get better soon!

Milk with garlic? 😣

Milk and honey to "grease" the throat & garlic is antibacterial.

I come from a country where in winters in my childhood temperatures would slip -15 -25 - butvwe still played all day in the snow or ice skating- so we had lots of caugh & cold & snotty noses - and that drink 😖

I dont doubt the effects just the taste lol. I must say first trimester I couldn't face garlic and I'm Mediterranean so garlic is normally added in everything! (Not milk tho lol)
