With allergy season approaching, and COVID-19 still here, many people are reaching for over-the-counter medication in the hopes of relieving congestion or getting through a cough. What about one of the most popular ones, Mucinex?

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.

Why spend $270 on the KeyFit 35 when the KeyFit 30 is $50 cheaper? The KeyFit 35 has a higher weight limit of 35 pounds, compared to 30 pounds with the KeyFit 30. You also get an extra 2 inches of height with the KeyFit 35, and that anti-rebound bar is a nice feature. 

Netflix put its adaptation of Leo Tolstoy's Anna Karenina on indefinite hold, and an Italian university course on Fyodor Dostoevsky - the 19th century novelist exiled for defying the Russian state - was withdrawn before it was reinstated after a backlash.

‘With all great literature, like the great Russian masters, there is a sort of universality that resonates with people.
They write about the human condition and in reading them we realise that people from 19th century Russia - or indeed modern day Russia - have many of the same difficulties, hopes and dreams that we have in the west.'

Some cultural bodies have prompted accusations of McCarthyism - the anti-Russian hysteria whipped up during the 1950s - for rushing to cancel Russian culture in response to Vladimir Putin's (above) invasion order

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.

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. 

Some research shows that high fever, during the first trimester especially, could cause problems. If you develop a fever from COVID-19, your doctor may recommend you take acetaminophen or a fever-reducing medication. 

Tamara Ecclestone got into the spirit of things on a trip to London's Winder Wonderland on Thursday.

This piece totally gets us in the mood for Christmas and we can almost taste the eggnog and the cookies.

"We can provide treatment for COVID-19 in pregnancy," Dr. Jeanne Sheffield, a maternal-fetal medicine expert at Johns Hopkins University, said in a post. "Several of the medications currently in use are also being used for our pregnant women, and early studies have shown they can provide some benefit."
