It depends on the specific ingredients in each one. Some cold medicine ingredients overlap with allergy med ingredients in these multi packs. Allergy meds are to keep your allergic reaction down, ie antihistimines. Sometimes allergy meds include ingredients that help with allergy symptoms, like decongestants. Some meds help the nose more to keep it from running and others help thin the mucus (like guaifenesin). Look at the ingredients in each pack and compare. Do you need help with specific symptoms? Then you're better off buying specific meds (not the multi meds in one pill). Best advice: Go ask your pharmacist. They also have more of these types meds behind the counter at the pharmacy that can help you that are more powerful or have ingredients that have to have controlled access. The pharmacist can help with a lot of these type questions, even if you don't have a prescription they will help you will over the counter meds.

Can you take Allegra D and any cold medicine together?
Nyquil contains Tylenol plus a cough suppressant and doxylamine, an antihistamine. Since Allegra is also an antihistamine, these would overlap in indication. Pharmacists prefer taking individual products so as to avoid interactions and duplications of ingredients, so try taking plain Tylenol and Robitussin DM with the Allegra and skip the Nyquil.

Generally yes, but be careful with the Excedrin product line, which has undergone significant expansion. "Regular" Excedrin is fine with Allegra-D, but any "cough & cold" type product may not be. Allegra-D contains an antihistamine and a decongestant. Read your excedrin label carefully to ensure it does not contain a therapeutic duplication.
