Bronchitis
Detailed Answer:
Welcome to Healthcaremagic.
Hi, I am Dr Anshul Varshney , I have read your query in detail , I understand your concern.
Your wife seems to be suffering from Acute Bronchitis.
Now, you should remember that during pregnancy any medicine should be best avoided because it can cause harm to the fetus.
However, if required they have to be given.
Now, Acute bronchitis takes time to settle down and it usually takes upto 2 weeks.
I personally recommend in pregnant females steam inhalation 6 hourly and anti allergic like Avil.
Ayurvedic cough formulations like Syrup Honituss are also considered safe.
So, i suppose that she should be given these medicines only and you have to keep patience as bronchitis takes time to settle.
In cases, where there is breathlessness, then nebulization is considered.
This is my personal opinion based on details available here.
Please share my opinion with your doctor.
If you still have any other query, you may please ask me.
Stay Healthy.

Detailed Answer:
Dear Friend.
A lot people use Ambrodil Plus in pregnancy but i avoid it as far as possible.
No antibiotics are further needed.
As discussed, it would take 2 weeks to show complete recovery.
I prescribe Avil , Honituss and Steam inhalation to my patients with these issues.
If you have any further query, please ask me.
