Pregnant women should always consult their doctors about what kinds of over-the-counter meds and herbal remedies are appropriate to take. Many meds that treat 'cold, cough, and flu' can also raise blood pressure.

Is mucinex dm safe to take while breastfeeding?
There are some who say it is not safe and others who say it is. The best thing to do is to ask your doctors. Here are the responses: No. Mucinex DM is not safe to take while pregnant. The plain Mucinex without the decongestant (DM) is safe to take. No. Mucinex DM is not safe to take while pregnant. The plain Mucinex without the decongestant (DM) is safe to take. The "DM" portion of the medication is not a decongestant. It stands for Dextromethorphan which is a cough suppressant...and which (in the form of Robitussin DM) is considered safe by many OB doctors. Mucinex DM is safe during pregnancy. Had the same issue today actually. 12 weeks pregnant and unsure of what to take. Went to CVS without my cell so I couldn't call my OB. I asked the pharmacist and he said mucinex DM would be best. He recommended not taking anything with sudafed or phenylephrine in it, which rules out any type of Tylenol cold medicine. Mucinex DM is not a decongestant, its a cough suppressant. Mucinex D is the decongestant. If you're congested and coughing, take the Mucinex DM for the cough and a saline nasal spray for the congestion. Pharmacist recommended method.

Can you take Klonopin and mucinex dm?
It is only safe to take Klonopin (an anti-seizure, anti-anxiety medication) and Mucinex DM (an exptorant) if you are NOT pregnant. If you are pregnant, however, neither of these medications should be taken without your doctor's express approval. Klonopin can cause birth defects to a fetus, and can pass into breast milk when breast feeding. So if you aren't pregnant, but are breast feeding, do not take this medication without your doctor's express approval. Otherwise, yes, you can take both of these medications together.
