Cough and Cold Medicine

Alcohol is most often used in drugs because it is an excellent solvent, in some ways better than water for keeping the other ingredients dissolved in the proper liquid form. Preparations made with alcohol will keep almost indefinitely while many made with water will not.

No, cough medicine cannot cause your period to come early - how would it?

When you menstruate is determined by your menstrual cycle, a hormonal domino affect between your brain and reproductive organs, cough medicine cannot change your menstrual cycle.

You can take these together. Excedrin is a combination product containing acetaminophen, caffeine, and aspirin. Cheratussin AC has codeine and guaifenesin, which are cough medicines. You can combine these without duplicating any ingredients.

Yeah there is no law telling you that you can't so techinically you can. But if you want to know the correct response you should ask a doctor not the lunies on wikianswers.

The expectorant known as Mucinex is not a product name itself. It is a drug and the term "Mucinex" is used in expectorant products. Some of the products include Mucinex DM, Mucinex Kids Cough Expectorant, Maximum Strength Mucinex and many others.

Vicks VapoRub was created in 1905.

In general one should never take drugs while pregnant without first consulting your physician. Robotussin CF contains, dextromethorphan, guaifenesin, and pseudoephedrine, which may be harmful to an unborn fetus. How drugs effect the fetus are dependant upon several factors including, the fetus' stage of development and the strength and does of the drug. Harmful effects could include, miscarriage or birth defects. Also you should not take drugs while nursing without your physicians permission as they may pass to the child through the breast milk and have harmful side effects.

5-8 hours after ingestion.

No, NyQuil Daytime is designed to relieve symptoms of a severe cold during the day, so that you don't suffer too much from them. NyQuil Daytime doesn't contain the alcohol that original NyQuil has in it that puts a person to sleep.

yes, you can...but only take the recommended dose. It will make you a bit sleepier, but not to bad, depends on how much ativan you take, I take three 1mg tablets a day every 6-8 hours and I took NyQuil and did just fine and Im 115pnds at 5'6 and 23 years old. So Yes you can. It usually takes about one hour to 45 mins to fully kick in. Good luck. god bless!

Yes, only Nyquil doesn't show up as Nyquil, it can show up as cocaine, THC, and other legal meds such as oxycontin. So, be sure and mention to your Dr. or whoever, that you have taken Nyquil in the past 2 or 3 days.=Annabelle50=

No, it is a flu and cold medication. The antihistamine in the drug can help you sleep, however. You can buy this separately from the other ingredients so you are not taking so much medication that you do not need. Benedryl is one of the brands available.

Assuming that you don't have any reactions to either of these drugs, and you are in otherwise good health except for elevated blood pressure (hence the simvastatin), yes you should be fine taking these two together. You shouldn't take simvastating (Zocor) and Mucinex D together though because Mucinex D's active ingredients are Guaifenesin and Psudoephedrine whereas Mucinex DM has Guaifenesin and Dextromethorphan, a Psudoephedrine 'substitute' which should not raise blood pressure.

Either way, it is always a good idea to check with your doctor or a pharmacist before taking drugs together. I am a certified pharmacy technician so I know drugs a bit, but second opinions are always good!

Dogs can have either Zyrtec or Robitussin DM (or CF). These medications are for two different purposes, they can't be used interchangeably. Zyrtec is an allergy medication, and Robitussin is a cough suppressant.

Your vet can advise you of the proper medication and dose for your dog, based on it's weight and the condition your dog has.

No, it is not reccomended. They say you can only take robutussin with out the combination like pain and fever just plain robutussin. it is pretty limited while being pregnant and can leave you miserable at times, just ;look at it in the long run...as long as the baby stays healthy.

If your taking an expectorant it is for clearing thick mucus out of your lungs and the way you clear it is by coughing. First take a deep breath (as much as you can) and and start a cough, spit in to a tissue (do not swallow what is produced), breath again (get your breath back) and start the process again. Take your time trying to clear your lungs of the mucus by coughing or you can sometimes cause to much pressure in your lungs and can burst small blood vessels causing you to spit red blood (frank blood if this happens more than three times in 24 hours contact medical advice without fail) Take your time and let the expectorant work, if there is no improvement after 48 hours contact your doctor !

The problem is both percocet and NyQuil have large amounts of Paracetamol (A.K.A. Acetominophin or Tylenol), and too much is very bad for your liver. That combination is also very likely to get somebody stoned out of their mind. This is NOT an endorcement both NyQuil and percocet are dangerous drugs when not used according to instructions.

Oxycodone is in Percocet, and when you combine it with Nyquil it can slow your breathing and heartrate, Now Percocet has Tylenol in it......which is worse...so do not mix them.

If the cough syrup with codeine does not contain Dextromethorphan, yes.

No, the chemicals interact with each other and may cause danger.

It should be safe. Mood stabilizers, such as Lamictal, are prescribed occasionally for those that have mood swings when taking a stimulant ADHD medication.

can you take hydrocodone-homatropine syrup with tamifle

Yes. As long as you're taking a low dose of xanax (<2mg), you should be fine mixing in the cheratussin. You'll likely experience some dizziness and blurred vision, so don't get behind the wheel. Also, don't consume any alcohol while mixing the two drugs!

Chronic coughing is a symptom. The symptom of coughing can be an acute or chronic problem, and can point to a condition (such as lung irritation) or a disease (such as COPD). It can point to a viral or bacterial cause, or simply irritation in the airways.
