Dr. Hale,
I am 16.5 weeks pregnant and I have a horrible cold. I am coughing constantly especially when laying down to sleep. I have tried the OTC cough medicine, dextromethorphan, but it hasnt proven to be effective for this cough. Is there anything that I can take for the cough that is both effective and safe? I looked back at past posts in the forum and it looks like you recommended codeine as both safe and effective. Is this still the case? Thank you so much for your help.
