default
Posted on Thu, 21 Feb 2013
Question: Hi, I am 6 months pregnant and I am having cold and dry cough, no fever. I understand, doctors do not recommend any medicine during pregnancy, but I am having hard time getting any sleep. Can you recommend any ayurvedic medicine that we can get in US. Also, Can I take Sambucus syrup for kids? This is an ayurvedic medicine available here for kids.

Thanks for your response.
