Is this Robitussin? Are you taking it for cough?

No, it's a generic brand with no real name. I bought it from an exxon station that is next door to my office. :p

Haha, exxon's always helpful!
I would call your doctor and ask him about it.

Ys, it is okay to take in pregnancy, if only for a short time.

I just wanted to make sure that it was indeed a cough med before answering.
