Your problem is what drugs can be used during pregnancy. At this stage you can
use any antibiotics but there arepregnancy catagiry drugs as Cefalexin and its group
of drugs. i hope you are satisfied with my reply. Thank you.

Dear Rehana,

Since you are a patient of RHD, these symptoms of fever and cough are ominous for you. And you have reached 36 weeks of pregnancy.

So in my opinion you need to consult your doctor and you may even need admission.

Meanwhile do steam inhalation for the cough.
Go to a hospital as soon as possible.

Hope for the best.
Dr. Juhi
