Dimetapp and Allegra have no drug interactions that I can find, however - there are multiple versions of Dimetapp and Allegra that have different ingredients. I would advise contacting a local pharmacist and asking them about the specific version of Allegra you have, and the specific version of Dimetapp you have. You do not want to risk the possibility of overdose.
The Mrs. says "oh no"
Dimetapp® was never a treatment for flu; it's a decongestant formerly prescribed to treat cold symptoms. (It is now available over-the-counter.) The Dimetapp® that's marketed for flu contains other ingredients and is used to treat symptoms--not the infection itself.
Dimetapp has their own website so that is probably the first source to seek out information. WebMD is a good place to check, along with drugstores like Walgreen's.
People. Smart, genius people.
Check with ur vet for dosage but yes
can i take 12hr dimetapp being an asthmatic
Dimetapp is not recommended for cats. Sometimes a vet will recommend something like Benadryl in very small doses. But you should definitely talk to the vet before going ahead with any un prescribed medications for your cat.
Yes, you can generally take Albuterol and Dimetapp Cold and Cough together, but it's important to consult with a healthcare provider first. Albuterol is a bronchodilator used for asthma and respiratory issues, while Dimetapp contains antihistamines and decongestants for cold symptoms. Combining these medications may lead to increased side effects or interactions, so professional guidance is essential. Always follow the dosing instructions and monitor for any adverse effects.
Many many years ago. I'm 31 and remember taking dimetapp as a child. The exact year, I have no idea. It's good stuff though. Always helped me. Answer It was found that it was one of the most ineffective drugs on the market and it went from Doctor recommendation to do not use.
Yes. This is a common combination of analgesic and cough products that should have no interactions. Note: especially be careful in reading the dosage for the Dimetapp, as many manufacturers (as Triaminic products) have changes their medication concentrations in the last few years. Overdosage, especially in children under 2 years old, have been frequent enough to prompt the Academy of Pediatricians to try to restrict their use altogether in this age group.
Funny, I just called my doctor and asked him the same thing! My daughter is only 27.5 pounds, but the doctor recommened 1 teaspoon every 4 hours.
