  • I went to the pharmacy because of a soar thraot and he said he'd rather me just gargle with warm salt water and drink wam tea. Worked for me.


  • I don't think they'd make cough drops that weren't safe to consume.  Although I wouldn't eat a whole bag as an afternoon snack.

  • Do they have anything medicinal in them? I used to eat them like candy when I was little. :-) Heck, I still do!

  • I have a bag sitting in front of me, I have a horrible cold. So lets hope theyre fine!
  • I think they are more similar to life savers than actual cough drops. Check the active ingredients list. If there's a medication listed ask your OB. If it's sugar/similar, I wouldn't worry too much.
  • I think any hard candy works just as well as Luden's!

  • My midwife said Halls were fine. She just said they have sugar so if you can go sugar free. Then they taste yucky.

     I'd assume Luden's would be okay too.

  • In first Tri, I couldn't find a store near me that sold preggie pops for nausea, and my OB recommended the Luden's.  Only thing that got me through was a luden's in my pocket for those unexpected nausea episodes!  it's just candy, there's no medicine in it.
  • My doctor told me that any cough drop is safe as long as they don't contain any alcohol.  Just check the ingredient list.
