Benedryl is fine. They gave it to me at the hospital while I was in labor because I turned out to be allergic to morphine

Benadryl. My dr had me on it for the last few weeks of being pregnant to help me sleep.

Call your doctor office. If they are not available go to your local pharmacy and ask the pharmacist what allergy meds are safe while prego. Good luck.

I don't know if there are any that you can take that would be safe. There are these wipes that you could recommend your friend to get and to wipe her cat down with and it picks up their dander and stuff and then just tell her to clean the house really well before the party starts. There is also a spray that can be bought and sprayed on couches and stuff and it gets rid of cat dander and stuff in furniture. Sorry but that is all I can think of
