Is it safe for the fetus when pregnant women take cold medicine?

Patient's question:

On June 3rd, I had my period. On June 28th, I developed a fever and took medicine for 3 days, but then noticed my period hadn't come. I took a pregnancy test and it came back positive. I have now been without a period for 8 days. I'm not sure if the medication I took previously could affect the fetus.
The medications I took include: 10 capsules of Cefixime, 3 capsules of something marked with an exclamation mark, and 6 capsules of Orange Loquat Capsules. I also took 6 tablets of Wind Cold Stop.
I am currently 24 years old and have never been pregnant before.

Doctor's answer:

Many ingredients in cold medicine can affect the fetus. It is recommended to undergo regular check-ups and consider induced abortion if necessary. In addition to medication treatment for eugenics, patients need to consult experts more often and maintain communication with doctors. Patients should also pay attention to dietary aspects, such as eating a light diet daily and exercising more. At the same time, patients should choose a top-tier hospital for diagnosis and treatment to achieve good therapeutic effects.
