Read the warnings on the back of the bottle, if it says not to use while pregnant, than don't if it doesn't say that, then go ahead

I think this depends on a lot of other factors. If we have an average size woman, of average height who isn't ginormously pregnant yet, and the wreck isn't wicked bad, then I'd say she'd probably be okay. Now if the woman was more petite and shorter, it might cause a problem, she'll be closer to the steering wheel. Or if the woman is 9 months pregnant and as big as a house that would probably create a problem. And of course if it's a bad accident then everyone's chances of being injured rise. I'm not sure if they've done any studies on pregnant women and airbags. I know that they have with seat belts, but I'd be interested to know what the airbag makers say about pregnant women. Hmm....I might have to look that up.

At my first prenatal visit with my current OB he gave me a list of OTC medications I can take for different symptoms for cold/allergy/flu (it's a generic form he gives to all his patients). It says you can take tylenol, sudafed, actifed, benadryl, Robitussin Dm and Halls or Vicks. Triaminic isn't on the list, but if the triaminic you have has the same active ingredients in it as these, you should be ok. This is my 3rd pregnancy and in all of my pregnancies, my OB's have all allowed me to take anything with tylenol or sudaphed. Good Luck!

Men may also be at risk. Although the risk of hemorrhagic stroke is low, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recommends that consumers not use any products that contain phenylpropanolamine.

What is Triaminic?
Chlorpheniramine is an antihistamine. It blocks the effects of the naturally occurring chemical histamine in the body. Chlorpheniramine prevents sneezing; itchy, watery eyes and nose; and other symptoms of allergies and hay fever.

Phenylpropanolamine is a decongestant. It constricts (shrinks) blood vessels (veins and arteries). This reduces the blood flow to certain areas and allows nasal passages to open up.

Triaminic is used to treat nasal congestion and sinusitis (inflammation of the sinuses) associated with allergies, hay fever, and the common cold.

Making dietary changes is your first line of defense in treating hypothyroidism. Learn here https://tr.im/uphzC

Many people with hypothyroidism experience crippling fatigue and brain fog, which prompts reaching for non-nutritional forms of energy like sugar and caffeine. I’ve dubbed these rascals the terrible twosome, as they can burn out your thyroid (and destabilize blood sugar).

1. Just say no to the dietary bungee cord. Greatly reduce or eliminate caffeine and sugar, including refined carbohydrates like flour, which the body treats like sugar. Make grain-based carbohydrates lesser of a focus, eating non-starchy vegetables to your heart’s content.

2. Up the protein. Protein transports thyroid hormone to all your tissues and enjoying it at each meal can help normalize thyroid function. Proteins include nuts and nut butters; quinoa; hormone- and antibiotic-free animal products (organic, grass-fed meats, eggs, and sustainably-farmed fish); and legumes.

no cold medication is. Especially decongestants and supressants.
All over the counter medications, or the cast majority of them, were removed from the safe list a couple years ago. Theyre a dangerous no no for preggos.

Tylenol is the only thing you should be taking. Plain regular 325ml tylenol.

My doctor said I can take Benedryl and Tylenol and that is it. My advice wold be to just check with your doctor. No one here is going to know any of your special circumstances. This is really only something your doctor should advise you on.
