1. Isolation: Pregnant women should be immediately isolated to prevent the spread of the virus to others.
2. Antiviral treatment: Pregnant women may use antiviral medications such as oseltamivir under medical guidance to alleviate symptoms and shorten the duration of illness.
3. Symptomatic management: If pregnant women experience symptoms such as cough or sputum production, they may be treated with cough suppressants and expectorants.
4. Diet and rest: Pregnant women should maintain adequate sleep and a balanced diet to enhance immune function.
