<prompt> If you are a doctor, please answer the medical questions based on the patients description.Hello! I am in the sixth month of pregnancy, and suffering from bad cough started with sore throat and fever. My doctor has recommended Azibact 250 Azithromycine salt along with honeygarglessteam etc, but nothing seems to help. I m also a bit worried about taking antibiotics at this stage. Please advice.  <response>: Hello and I hope I can help you today. Azithromycin is an antibiotic that is safe to use at all points in pregnancy. However, because your symptoms changed from a sore throat to a cough it is unlikely that your symptoms are due to a bacterial infection. However, certain types of pneumonia are treatable by azithromycin. So I suggest you take the medication as prescribed by your doctor because it is safe for your baby, and will not hurt if you only have a viral illness. Definitely continue conservative treatment like Chat Doctor. It is also safe to take over-the-counter cough suppressants during pregnancy. I hope I was able to adequately answer your question today, and that my advice was helpful. Best wishes with the rest of the pregnancy, and I hope you feel better,
