Suggest Treatment For Severe Cough During Pregnancy

Hi Varun, Cefixime is an antibiotic used to treat infections. Finishing the course of antibiotics is very important. Do not stop in the middle of the course. I would suggest you to consult your obstetrician if the breathing problem is severe or intolerable. Please do take the medications as prescribed only. Hope the above information helps you. Thanks for writing into healthcaremagic. Have a nice day.
