Stormey, the pharmacist was correct about robitussin, but the best is nothing at all because anything in these cough medicines can harm the fetus.

You have a lot of questions, stormey and if you have a regular pediatrician, an obgyn, please save up all your questions and ask the doctor how to proceed while you are pregnant. Be safe, rather then sorry.

Regular Robitussin is fine Stormey, it won't hurt the fetus.
