There are a lot of medications which you can take if you are having sore throat and cold which are totally safe during breastfeeding for you and your baby...
I am telling few measures which you can follow
have warm saline gargles... steam inhalation three times daily ....tablet Crocin as and when needed in case of fever ...
tablet Cetirizine 5 milligram at bedtime for 3 Nights ...
you can also use otrivin nasal drops if you have nasal blockage twice daily
Next Steps
antibiotics can also be added ...for that you can consult with me directly online..
