Antihistamine choice and safety changes by trimester and by drug, so that specific call needs to stay with your obstetrician rather than a general answer here.
Next Steps
Meanwhile, steam inhalation, more frequent saline rinses, and a humidifier at night can ease congestion without any medicine.
Health Tips
Please don't restart your usual antihistamine on your own, even if it worked well before pregnancy.
