Pseudoephedrine is a common decongestant, found in Mucinex products such as Mucinex D, that works by narrowing the blood vessels in the nasal passages. And it’s also one ingredient the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecologists recommends against during the first trimester due to a small risk of birth defects in the abdominal wall.

Demi and Bruce’s amicable co-parenting relationship has been on full display over the years as they have celebrated many holidays together, vacationed together and attended events in support of each other.

As we were driving out of the cemetery, we heard on the radio that Liverpool Football Club had opened up Anfield for people to pay their respects.
We agreed that we’d like to go and place flowers on the spot where Sarah and Vicki had always stood to watch Liverpool play.

Rumer recalled how she has ‘a lot of friends who grew up with parents who got divorced at a young age,’ and ‘watched their parents, like, pit them against each other or have to choose between holidays.’

Thomas (pictured on Friday) will advance to the finals tonight, alongside Iszac Henig, a transgender male – who has not started hormone therapy, therefore, allowed to compete as a woman. It will be the first time they go head-to-head since the Ivy League Championships.

The Bronx-born brunette told WWHL on February 16 about her kids appearing on the show: ‘I think that they have mixed feelings about it. But I’m incredibly proud of them and I think that they all feel that they are helping people and helping to start conversations in other households and that means a lot’ 

The 53-year-old RHOC star – who boasts 1M social media followers – replied on Instagram on Wednesday: ‘OMG. Totally fan girling out! Thank you for the kind words @badgalriri! You’re going to be an amazing mom!’

At our local chapel of rest, the undertaker’s wife dressed Sarah and Vicki in their favourite clothes. I couldn’t wait to welcome them home from their terrible ordeal and to have them back with me, in their own surroundings again.

Is Mucinex safe during pregnancy? There are a few different kinds of Mucinex (Mucinex, Mucinex D and Mucinex DM, for example) but some of the most common popular products contain guaifenesin, pseudoephedrine and dextromethorphan. 

February 8 family portrait: The table-flipping 49-year-old has four daughters – Gia, 21; Gabriella, 17; Milania, 16; and Audriana, 12 – from her 20-year marriage to high school sweetheart Joe Giudice, which ended in 2020

Although it must have been very difficult for him, he attended the funerals of many of the victims. It was during one of our trips to the cemetery that we saw a woman standing by our daughters’ graves looking at the flowers and tributes. 

In the first extract from her heart-breaking new book, Jenni Hicks recounted in yesterday’s Daily Mail how her two teenage daughters were crushed to death at Hillsborough.
Here, in the second instalment of our three-part serialisation, she describes the aftermath and her anger at officialdom’s callous behaviour. 

On an episode of the Dopey podcast, Scout explained that Emma, Mabel and Evelyn planned to join them but their trip had been delayed after one of her little sisters picked up a hypodermic needle at a park. 

Determining the risk of the other active ingredients found in Mucinex is a little trickier. Dextromethorphan is a cough suppressant that works by interfering with the “cough” signal in your brain. Guaifenesin works by loosening the mucus in your chest. There are some reports of a small risk of neural tube defects linked to guaifenesin, but the evidence is inconclusive. It’s listed in a report by the American Academy of Family Physicians as “might be unsafe during first trimester.” In the same report, dextromethorphan is listed as “appears to be safe in pregnancy,” but as is true for many drugs and ingredients, there isn’t enough evidence to say conclusively either way.

Bottom line: Ask your health care provider before taking Mucinex or any cough medicine during pregnancy, so the two of you can weigh the severity of your symptoms with the potential risks (if any) of medication. 

As Dr. Robyn Horsager-Boehrer wrote in a post for UT Southwestern Medical Center, avoid medication formulated for multiple symptoms during pregnancy, as they can contain unnecessary amounts of acetaminophen. Also, she writes, natural cough remedies like a spoonful of honey can be just as effective (or more effective) than medication.
