I wouldn't take a thing w/o getting the OK from your OB.

but I agree, halls DO feel good when your throat is sore.....

Re: So Sick!! Can I take Halls??

My throat was killing me yesterday, my OB said ok to cough drops WITHOUT zinc. So I got some Ricola.

I saw my primary physician today, turns out I have a viral infection Chat Icon
She prescribed antibiotics, but I think I am going to hold off unless I can't get better on my own.

uhm...... why would you take antibiotics if you have a VIRAL infection?

All that will do is possibly also give you diahrea and a yeast infection Chat Icon

antibiotics only work on bacteria.

Really? That's what my doc prescribed, maybe I heard her wrong, my head is all congested. She said I have a bad cold or a bad sinus infection, that could be viral Chat Icon
She even called my OB to make sure that I am allowed antibiotics....

I am going to ride it out, and not take the antibiotics she prescribed. Hopefully I'll get better on my own.
