Best Answer

No. There are a few drugs that can be given to pets that are also used by humans, but you need to be very careful. If your dog is coughing, it needs to be seen by a vet, but please call ahead of time...more than likely a cough is caused by Bordatello, and your vet may not want your dog in the office to prevent infected other dogs. Bordatello usually resolves on it's own, but if it goes on too long, some vets may prefer to treat with antibiotics to prevent secondary infections.

Yes. Tesslon is for cough.. and really doesn't do anything for cough. I think doctors use it to trick people into thinking they're getting something great for a cough. hell the xanax would probably help better for a cough.

Can you take NyQuil with tessalon?

Yes. The normal dosing for benzonatate (Tessalon) is 100mg-200mg three times daily, as needed. No more than 600mg per 24 hours. The cough suppressant in Vicks Nyquil (acetaminophen, dextromethorphan, doxylamine and pseudoephedrine), works via a different mechanism. You may take them together. The chance of drowsiness can increase taking both together, so be careful if you must be alert.
