Does anyone know what the rules for cough drops during pregnancy are? DH has been fighting a cold and even though I had high hopes, I think I'm coming down with it. 
I'm about to go to bed and try to sleep it off, but my throat is starting to really hurt...I'm thinking hot tea and cough drops would get me through the work day tomorrow. But are cough drops okay? Google seems to think so. Anyone?

My doctor okayed them for me, and I used them in first and second tri.

Grazie! I think I was a little delirious last night...I searched for threads that contained the word 'menthol' but not for ones that contained the words 'cough drops.'

My doctor is okay with them too!

Not all cough drops are the same so it really depends which ones you take and what the ingredients are. I just wanted to be on the safe side so I stuck to honey and lemon and saline solution

I just drained a cup of lemon tea but it's sooo hottt here that I don't think I'll be going the hot beverage route again. And when I turn the A/C on higher it hurts my throat to breathe. I took Tylenol, which did nothing. But the thought of a cough drop makes me wanna puke at the moment...basically I just want to complain? Waaah!

My Dr said they were ok!

I was sooooo sick my last 2 months of pregnancy and cough drops and hot water with lemon and honey were my saviours. I coughed non-stop for those 2 months though and it sucked! I wanted to take buckleys so bad to just get rid of it!
