Question: My pregnant wife is suffering from cough and this cough is more when shes sleeping Please docs Help me out We have use series of syrup but no difference
Answer: Hi Rafiu
Pregnancy is a very delicate period Hence the need to consult specialist care whenever the need arises
Is the cough dry or if it produces sputum whats the colour of the sputum
Does she have fever weight loss or drenching night sweats
Has she been asthmatic before now
The cough may be due to irritants in the environment but it could also be caused by infection or even esophageal reflux which manifests as heart burn 
Please take her to the hospital for proper evaluation and so that she can do some tests Kindly stop those syrups she has been taking Its best to use only prescribed drugs in pregnancy because some drugs are harmful to the baby
Best wishes
