What is the shelf life of codeine cough syrup?

I have a terrible cough right now. I found some cough syrup in the back of the medicine cabinet labeled "acetominophen and codeine phosphate elixir". The date on the prescription bottle is May 19, 2004. (That's almost nine years ago.) It's working just fine... at least I am falling asleep and staying asleep - not being wakened up by that stupid hacking cough - so it must be okay...

Am I stupid to to do that? You bet! I would never recommend anyone else take medication that's been sitting in their medicine cabinet for 8 years plus. But in this case, and because it's "me", I'm really glad I never got around to throwing it out. Because it's really helping...

Nope, otherwise it wouldn't be on sale.

Will dayquil show up on drug test?

Probably.

Several of the active ingredients can interfere with the markers used for detecting drugs. Psuedoephedrine may show up as meth. Ibuprofen tends to show up as marijuana.

Many legal drugs show up on drug test; including nicotine and caffeine. But showing up doesn't mean Illegal drugs like Marihuana, cocainne and so on. The test drug is done to find if the future employee or else is using ILLEGAL drugs; not prescribed or over the counter(dayquil or nightquil or cold medicines).

Can an adult take childrens cough syrup?

It's okay to give half an adult dose. Here's why its ok to give a half dose (it's a little complicated so pay attention, ok?)

So here is the breakdown:

~ for every reccommended (5 mL, milliliter) dose of Robitussin DM ADULT there are 10mg Dextromethorphan and 100mg of Guaifenesen (the only drug in straight Robitussin)

~ The manufacturer has a formulation of Children's Robitussin that has 7.5mg Dextromethorphan and 50mg Guaifenesen per dose. This formula is safe for kids over 4 years.

~ so, if you cut the adult dose in HALF (2.5ml), you will have a dose with 5mg Dextromethorphan and 50mg Guaifenesen, which is similar to the Children's dose (with the Dex. being a little less).

THEREFORE, because the half dose is comparable (if not less) to the children's dose that was made by the manufacturer because of its med content, it is indeed OK to give a child the half dose!

Can you take ambien and NyQuil at the same time and lamictal?

I take Lexapro and Lamictal daily and occasionally use Ambien to help me sleep. I have been sick lately and NyQuil is my preferred cold and flu OTC medication. I have taken both simultaneously, however, I halved my Ambien dose (10mg to 5mg) just to be more on the safe side. I think it really depends on how Ambien effects you. Some people are really hit hard by it, others (such as myself) can tolerate it pretty well. If it effects you a lot you should probably either reduce the dosage when mixing with NyQuil or try and just let the NyQuil put you to sleep. Just be responsible and you'll be fine. Best..

Can Albuterol and NyQuil be taken at same time?

Speaking from personal experience, the two don't mix well. Albuterol is a beta agonist (an upper) NyQuil contains a beta agonist, pseudoephedrine. Taking them at the same time will just race your heart and increase your blood pressure. If your looking for a cough suppressant try getting a prescription for Tussionex.

What kind of cough syrup gets you high that's not over the counter?

Well check the active ingredients mate. And I don't know about brands what your looking for however is dextromethorphan or "dxm" for short. Your looking for something with JUST that on it, any other things can lead to danger.

This however is in the codeine board, if your in America your out of luck for there is no over the counter brands with it in it. If your in Europe however i would not know the brands are there.

Can you take NyQuil while taking Depakote?

Depakote should not be taken in conjunction with Alcohol, which NyQuil does contain. However the amount of Alcohol in a single adult dosage of NyQuil should not cause harm. Plus you should be going directly to bed after taking the NyQuil dose. Any symptoms of dizziness, or vision difficulty, speech, etc should go un-noticed.

However, to be absolutely safe, ask your Doctor about your specific requirements!
