Can pregnant women take medication?

Patient's question:

Hello:
I am about 45 days pregnant and got a cold a few days ago. When I went to the hospital for treatment, the doctor prescribed an antiviral powder for me and also gave me Liuwei Dihuang Soft Capsules (the doctor said they are for fetal health, to be taken three times a day, three capsules each time). However, I read on the instructions that it cannot be taken with cold medicine at the same time. What should I do?
Additionally, I bought Vitamin C tablets (for treating colds) and folic acid tablets (to support fetal brain development). Can I take them?

Doctor's answer:

Hello: Then your current situation is to prioritize treatment for the cold. In addition to timely treatment for eugenics, patients need to consult experts for advice, maintain communication with doctors, and pay attention to nursing aspects, such as a light diet and more outdoor exercise. At the same time, patients should also pay attention to choosing a regular hospital for diagnosis and treatment, so as to obtain good therapeutic effects.
