Brief Answer:
Please get a physician visit done.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for posting your query.

In the current scenario, your wife needs a check up by a physician. As she is pregnant, self-medication is not advised. The cause of the fever should be identified.

Paracetamol is safe for use in pregnancy. Cold sponging may be used to control the fever. Cough syrup should be used with caution in pregnancy and so is anti-histamine. If there is a sore throat, warm saline gargles are helpful. Water should be taken warm to soothe the throat. Steam inhalations are helpful to relieve nasal congestion.

Please see that she has adequate liquids, proper rest and good nutrition.

Hope your query has been answered. Please feel free to contact for more information. I will be happy to help.

regards,
Shanti.V.
