Have you seen a doctor and asked if the MAC lozenges are okay? A friend of mine took strepsils when she was preggers and everything seems okay (as long as it's in moderation and you don't overdo it I suppose). As for natural remedies, gargling warm salt water always works for me. I've tried drinking warm honey water too but I find the salt water solution works faster. Hope you feel better soon!

Had a friend who was prescribed this by her GP when she was pregnant, so should be safe. If you are worried, just call up the clinic or head to a pharmacist to check. Oh, and best to follow the dosage. My friend also drank honey water to ease the discomfort. Take care!!
