You can try products like guaifenesin (mucinex) that thin mucus so it won't sit in the back of your throat or your chest. This type of medication is called an expectorant, which means it helps you to expel mucus by thinning and loosening it.

Since pregnancy is a very delicate state, we can say that no drug is 100 percent safe for all women. We have to be careful with any drug, even with over-the-counter medication or OTC drugs. The best thing to do is consult your GP or obstetrician. They both know your health situation and can recommend what will work best for you. Do not take more than the prescribed dose and better avoid taking any medication at all during the first trimester. This is the time when the fetus is most vulnerable.more
