i would ask a few additional questions around the duration and type of the cough and if you have seen a health care provider previously for the cough. in some cases it is not a good idea to suppress a cough as it can lead to infection etc. we do not have well-controlled studies regarding the use of vicks vaporub in pregnancy so i would recommend speaking to your health care provider before using the product.
can i use vicks vaporub during my pregnancy? i have a cough that won’t go away. i'm 38 weeks pregnant.
