Yes, it is a pankinnetic liquid. That means that the ingredients are released over time. In this case the advertised length of action is 12 hours. The polisterex in suspention is responsible for the extended release.

Can you take tussionex pennkinetic with Ambien?

No. Ambien is a sleep aid, so it is made to help you sleep. Tussionex is a cough medication, but it is a controlled drug. It will make you very sleepy. Taking the two together can decrease your heart rate and could be fatal.


What is in tussionex syrup?

Tussionex syrup contains combination of chlorpheniramine and hydrocodone.


How much hydrocodone and chlorpheniramine is in one teaspoon of tussionex?

1 tsp. tussionex has 10mg (.01g) hydrocodone, which is the equivilent of 2 vicodin. I don't know how much chlorpheniramine is in one tsp. NOT EXACTLY TRUE. One teaspoon does contain the equivalent of 2 vicodin of hydrocodone; however, in Tussionex, the hydrocodone is released over a period of 12 hours. Therefore, over 12 hours, 10 mg of hydrocodone is released. If you were to take 2 vicodin, you'd have 10mg of hydrocodone released immediately and when you take 2 more in 4 more hours, you'd have a total of 20 mg of hydrocodone released. With Tussionex, in that same 8 hours, you will have only realized 8mg of hydrocodone. It's the time release that causes the changes....
