Severe cough during pregnancy

2023-03-28 04:49:48
I am experiencing post nasal drip cough like severely. I have been restless for 3 days and coughing every 5 mins. I don't have any other symptoms. I am 5 weeks pregnant. Gynaec suggested cefixime 200 and citrizan. I am using them but I am worried does cough in this severity causes miscarriage or the infection in me causes any harm to the foetus. Please help
