Sore Throat....

in 2nd Trimester
So I woke up this morning with a sore throat and I don't like it...I called the doctor to see what I could take and they said gargle salt water, hard candy, throat lozenges; just not the kind with alcohol in them.  She said nothing that will numb.  So I asked if Halls cough drops were ok and she said yes.  Well I read the package and it says oral anesthetic.  Isn't this something that numbs and that I shouldn't have?  I'm confused...do any of you know?

    My doc said that cough drops are fine.  I wake up every day with a sore throat because of post nasal drip. Gotta love that subtle symptom. lol
