what classification of drug does finegan fall under? is it a benzo or ## This is a commonly misunderstanding of the name Phenergan, which contains the active ingredient Promethazine, which is an antihistamine that's most commonly used to help prevent or treat nausea and vomiting. Learn more Phenergan details here. So no, it is not a Benzodiazepine, nor is it related to them. Are you being drug tested?

I started with a cold and cough but it has gotten worse. I have sinus pressure, blowing yellow and green stuff, and coughing up yellow and green phlem. My chest hurts when I cough. ## It may have turned into a sinus infection and possibly bronchitis, in which case you'll need a course of antibiotics. Learn more Bronchitis details here. Learn more antibiotic details here. Have you contacted your doctor? That's really the only way to get the prescription you need to help clear this up. Has there been any change?

the ventolin guaifenesin salbutamol that i buy last 2009, is already expired last June 2011. is their any effect for me because accidentally I take because I dont have any new one. ## These don't get dangerous once expired, from the information that I've found, they just tend to lose effectiveness, so they may not work as well. Learn more Ventolindetails here. Learn more Guaifenesin details here. Learn more Salbutamoldetails here. If you still need them, I suggest disposing of these ones now and picking up a new supply, to ensure their effectiveness the next time you need to take them. Are there any other questions or comments?

Any complications to people with high blood pressure ## Yes, if yours is high, you should be very careful. Most antihistamines, such as the Phenylephrine in this can raise your blood pressure and heart rate. The elevation is usually minor for most people, but if you have hypertension, then for you it could raise it to dangerous levels. Just as an example, I'm a hypertension patient that had heart failure and when I was in the OR having surgery, the anesthetic caused my heart rate to start dropping dangerously low, but to bring it back up they only had to use a small dose of the Phenylephrine. It kept my life out of danger, but it also made sure I know why my doctor doesn't recommend using it. Learn more Phenylephrine details here. Learn more Chlorpheniramine details here. What h...

i had chronic hives for close to a year, and the only thing that changed was me stopping zyrtec. Zyrtec for me is dangerous as it makes u seem like your life depended on it, but it doesnt! Even when it seems that Zyrtec is helping you, for me, my body has probably healed by itself of the hive problem but zyrtec is the one that is still causing it to happen! beware of its withdrawal symptoms and if you have to take it, take a minuscule amount of it, and try to ween yourself off it as soon as possible.

My wife gave my 11 y.o. son a Mucinex DM tablet withj 60 mg pseudoephedrine HCL. I was not aware of this and gave him 2 tsp of Children's Sudafed, which has an additional 30 mg. Should we be worried about the total of 90 mg's? ## Is he okay? Did he show any signs of ill effects? That is a high dosage for a child his age, the usual dosage for children 6 to 11 is just 30mgs every 6 hours, to a maximum of 4 doses in 24 hours. Learn more Pseudoephedrine details here.

my boyfriend bought coricidin hbp by mistake and really needs a decongestant. is it ok to give him mucinex with the coricidin hbp? ## Based on my research there are no drug interactions found between Coricidin HBP and Mucinex. This does not necessarily mean no interactions exist, but my sources state that every effort has been made to ensure that the information provided is accurate. With that said, (because I am not a doctor) the most I can tell you is that from what I've read, these two medications are regarded as being safe to take together and shouldn't present any problems outside of the normal side effects associated with each medication. I hope this info helps to answer your question!

When I had the chicken pox as child my doctor prescribed a little gray pill for itching. Many pills were left over, and for years afterward, whenever my mom or dad or I had a cough, we would take the pill to stop the nagging itching in the back of our throats. This pill worked well, even after the expiration date, and nobody died. This pills was prescribed in the 1960s, the doctor is deceased, so we cannot go back into the medical records to find the name of the pill. Does anyone know of similar pill today? ## Topical skin itching, or was it solely for the scratchy/itchy throat? More specifics may help to narrow down the possibilities. Does anyone else know? ## I am interested in this tiny grey pill [ like a tiny M&M] I took it in the 60's for a bad rash and it stopped the itchi...
