Yes I am pregnant.
And it doesn't matter if anyone says the wrong things or anything I am not taking anything I'm just curious and I will ask the doctor when I go and find out for sure but I trust that majority of answers are truthful and have been formed from experience

NO Demizen is NOT OK! Paracetamol is the only thing you should take during pregnancy without consulting a doctor first. A doctor will be able to tell you what cold tablets (if any) are safe during pregnancy. Please don't take advise from non-specialists, it is not worth risking the health of your baby.

Tylenol and Benadryl are the only safe ones I know of. If you are in pain or have a cold, talk to your doctor about what is safe for you and the baby. That is the SAFEST thing to do!!!

No cold medicine during the first trimester. I'm not familiar with Demizen, but you could ask your pharmacist or doctor. I took saline nose drops when I was sick.
Regular strength Tylenol is the only pain meds my doctor will let me have.

when i had my first doctors appointment when i was pregnant she gave me a list of the things I can take and what not to take. so if i were you i would go to a doctor and ask them to give you a list or something. im not trying to be rude or any thing but what are you going to do if someone gives you the wrong answer or tells you wrong on purpose. Just be careful. take care and congrats.

They really don't want you to take any pain medication when you are pregnant. I was allowed Advil in small doses and very, very far in between and not really close to delivery. The only other one I know of is Tylenol You need to call your OB and ask him/her what she will allow you to take during this time.

Go onto www.safefetus.com They give each drug a grade system. "A" being somewhat safe and "D" not a good idea. They will also say things like "can be taken in the third trimester"

Only your Dr. can adivse you. I was told to only take Tylenol while pregnant, anything else would take Dr.'s approval based on my own health issues. Take NOTHING until you've cleared this up. Good luck!

Most cold medications are NOT okay. Benadryl and tylenol are okay tho. NOT aspirin in the third trimester for sure.

i am 8 1/2 months and i fell down the steps on my porch and sprained my ankle and my doctor gave me tylenol 3's. It made me sick so he switched me to vikidin 500's. so actually its up to your doctor. He also had me taking benadryl to sleep at night.
