Cold FX?

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 
Sorry if this has been posted before...I tried to do a search and it didn't come up.
I am 26 weeks preggo and am just starting a cold, usually I would hit it with Cold Fx and orange juice...does anyone know if it is safe to take during pregnancy? The website and bottle both say to consult a doctor/OB...

I believe that it's made of ginseng and that is not good to take during pregnancy. Maybe because it's a stimulant. I up my D3 when I start to get sick, maybe take a bit of echanacea (no goldenseal) and vit C. Also, there are some homeopathic pills (osceocillium??) that are available but I find that D usually does the trick. I will take about 6000-10000 when I feel something coming on.

also, I will up my neti-pot use. I have not had a full-fledged cold thing since I started with it years ago.
