How to treat a cold in pregnant women

Patient's question:

I am already five months pregnant. Because I didn't cover the blanket properly when sleeping the night before, I caught a cold the next day. I am very worried and afraid that the medicine will affect the fetus. I am very worried now. What kind of medicine should a pregnant woman take for a wind-cold cold?

Doctor's answer:

Hypothesis: Based on your purchase information, it is hypothesized that you are currently in the pregnancy period and have again experienced symptoms of a cold. If you do not have a fever, it is best not to take medication to avoid any adverse effects on the fetus. You can drink more water, eat more fruits and vegetables, and see how to alleviate these symptoms.
Recommendation: If you have a fever, you can take appropriate oral doses of amoxicillin capsules and Shuanghuanglian oral liquid to treat the condition and see how effective it is.
