23 weeks pregnant with a horrible headcold?

Ok im a little over 23 weeks and have been feeling really crappy.

Now my doctor gave me a list of "ok" medicines to take when I went to my first visit and on the list it said sudafed.

My question is can I take sudafed ssevere cold?

It doesn't specify on my sheet and there is no warning for pregnant women on the box and since doctors are closed on sunday I want to know if anyone knows if its safe for me to take it? Thanx in advance

    you could take Sudafed. It ought to be the Sudafed that you purchase on the prescription counter. You dont elect a prescription. I had terrible hypersensitive reactions and an exceedingly undesirable chilly for the period of my being pregnant and the Sudafed worked quite good and didnt make me drowsy in any respect. good success!

  • Just call and ask the dr about that specific one.
