A. Paracetamol and ibuprofen are safe to be taken for a sore throat while breastfeeding but please consult with your doctor before taking these. Avoid using decongestants as they may hamper with your breast milk supply. Take warm soups. Gargle with apple cider vinegar mixed in water. Steam inhalation helps. Drink ginger tea. Gargle with salt water 4-5 times in a day. Add 1 tbsp of honey to a glass of warm water and squeeze juice of a lemon into it.
