Now that I'm pregnant and sick, what should I do?

Patient's question:

Now it's very itchy treatment condition: No treatment has been given. Help wanted: Now that I'm pregnant, what method should I use for treatment?

Doctor's answer:

Flu with high fever, severe cough. Chaihu injection can be used for fever reduction, and pure Chinese herbal cough syrup can be used for cough relief. At the same time, wet towels can be used for cold compresses, and a 30% alcohol solution (or diluted with an equal amount of white wine) can be used for bathing to achieve a physical fever-reducing effect. Antiviral drugs have adverse effects on the fetus, and they are not recommended for use during pregnancy. If they must be used, medical guidance is required. Indomethacin is a contraindicated fever-reducing drug for pregnant women, and aspirin is also not recommended for use after 32 weeks of pregnancy. Expectorants and cough medicines are generally safe, but cough medicines containing iodine are not recommended for use during pregnancy.
