Cough in my 8th month of pregnancy

Question

Asked for Female, 29 Years

Hi Sir/Mam, I am 8 months pregnant, my LMP is 13th November 2021. I had throat pain earlier but with calpol 650 and hot water intake it's all gone. I don't have any throat pain now but I have cough. The cough(khasi) is troubling me a lot. Can you please suggest any cough syrup which is safe in pregnancy. Can I take Honitus? If yes what are its dosage?
