Speak to a pharmacist, they will be able to tell you what is safe for you to use.
Congratulations on your pregnancy.

I asked the exact same question to my midwife/pharmacist and they told me the only one I could use was Becodefence (used to be called Prevalin) It's the nose barrier that's completely drug free. They said all of the other nose sprays like Beconase etc caused cleft palete in studies and tests against animals and it was a strong possibly it happens in humans too! 😩
