I have been feeling sick for about a week now and was wondering if there was any over the counter decongestion medicine that is safe to take when pregnant.

Congestion and pregnant
You did not state how far along you are in your pregnancy. We usually shy away from recommending anything in the first 12 weeks of pregnancy due to lack of data. We also do not like using medications with ibuprofen in them after 20 weeks. Having said that, I think most OB/Gyns would recommend using Tylenol, pseudofed and benadryl during pregnancy because all three compounds have been around a long time and used for a lot of years. Good luck.
As a rule, over-the-counter medications are safe. Overuse of some can raise your blood pressure, so use them as directed.
