Decongestants like Sudafed can make your heart race and blood pressure go up. Aspirin and other NSAIDS (ibuprofen and naproxen) can thin the blood and cause internal bleeding. Stimulant laxatives might cause cramps and premature labor. Ask your doctor for a list of drugs that he or she feel are safe for you. You can always take acetaminophen (Tylenol), diphenhydramine (Benadryl), and guaifenesin (expectorant in Mucinex or Robitussin-plain)
