Hello,
no it is not ok to take tylenol sinus if
you read the side of the box it will say
not to take when pregnant.. You have to
be very careful in what you take while you
are with child... If it gets really bad I
would suggust go to see your doctor he/she
maybe albe to give you something..

No Medicine Is Completely Safe Posted: 12-12-03 13:38pm
Hi,
i have a terrible cold also...Keeps me up
all night long. I asked the doctor...He
said that the robitusins are alright,
however even they are a class c medication
which means that studies have shown that
harm can be done to the unborn child.
Benadryl is a class b and is safer than
robutusin...But bottom line is that
nothing is really completely safe. I'm
staying away from the stuff and just
suffering. No improvement yet but i'm
hoping for the best. Ask your doctor
though before taking anything. Always ask
your doctor first. Good luck and feel
better.

The best thing might be a vaporizer or
steamer to help with the cold. Medicines
arent very safe but try that, it should
help.

Hey hey
hey .. The only medication that I have
been told to take when I am pregnant is
what my doctor has given me or tylenol
regular or extra strength but thats it..
I am not sure about what ones r safe and
wat ones arent.. Read the box and to be
extra careful call your doctor and ask or
call the local pharmacy... I am 38 weeks
pregnant and have only taken tylenol
once.. I fought of a couple colds and the
flu without meds lol I only took the
tylenol for my back pain since nothing
else worked
