Allergies, Cough & Cold Forums (Page 26)

I've been coughing for almost a month. It's a dry cough and it feels like there's something sticking onto my throat that makes me want to cough. Sometimes my throat feels itchy. What medicine should I use? Please help me. I've been to the doctor but the med didn't work. They just gave me something for the allergy...Thanks. ## Hi Beyone, Sorry to hear about your cough. How have you been feeling since the timing of your post last week? Since this cough has persisted for almost a month, I can understand why they may have given you allergy medication. It's spring time now with things blooming and pollen in the air. Do you feel sick other than the cough? If so, it could be a viral infection...although you'd probably have to get some clarification through the docto...

Where can I purchase Daxophed-D? I can no longer get Drixoral & read that Daxophed-D has the same ingredients. I am desperate to find a replacement that works. My ears plug up and I get very dizzy so I am hoping this drug is the answer. I have tried many other antihistamines and none of them work. ## Where can I purchase DAXOPHED-D over the counter? I would like to try it since I can no longer get Drixoral and the ingredients are supposed to be the same. ## Where can I find Daxophed tablets for allergies, similar to Drixoral? Drixoral is no longer manufactured.

As the other person asked. I would like to dye my white pills to quickly identify I sort ny pills in a weekly keeper so I cant leave them in the container they come in. Any suggestions? ## Hello, Eileen! How are you? You can't actually dye the tablets, so to speak, because that would get them wet and cause degradation. The best option would be just to familiarize yourself with the markings on them, so you can recognize them that way. All prescription tablets in the U.S. are required to have unique markings to enable their identification, in case of emergency. Once you became familiar with the markings on each medication, you can tell at a glance which tablet you've picked up. However, I realize that for some people, that isn't going to be practical, small tablets can be very...

Hi, I am in my 35th week of my pregnancy and the amniotic fluid level from my scan report on the 34th week was measured as 7.9. Subsequently my doctor had suggested to take a drip of Inj. Astymin M or Inj. Astymin 3 through Iv and i was told that this drip is to improvise the fluid level for a comfortable delivery, but i am worried now since one of my neighbours told me that taking this drip might have reactions in my body such as irritation and swollen throat, breathing discomforts, skin allergy etc..hence risky (their niece had suffered these problems during her delivery). It would be great if i can get this clarified through any of your experience / expertise. ## The Astymin infusions are actually nutritional supplements, there are some cases where the lack of proper nutrition, such ...

Can phenylephrine show a false positive for phentermine? ## I just got bacl from my p.o. And I put clean urine in a nasal spray bottle because I thought it would be easy to get away with... Well I ended up failing for suboxone so I don't recommend anyone doing that. Just a warning... ## I took Sudafed PE the day before I had my monthly drug test and it didn't show up as a false positive for anything. They do say that the phenylephrine may cause a false positive for methamphetamine but it didn't on me. I asked the nurse about this when I went in and she told me if you buy the Sudafed that's behind the counter that you have to sign for that. It will show up as methamphetamine because it's what people use to make methamphetamine. Hope that helps you out.

My 2 yr old has had a fever, cold and cough for the past 2 days. He was prescribed azithral 100mg syrup 5no, once a day with Crocin DS for his fever and asthalin expectorant for the cough. Today, this morning he had loose stools that were greenish and frothy. Is this a side effect of the antibiotic or should I be worried? Also, I noticed white small worms (2mm) swimming in his feces. I'm very worried. ## My 2yr old baby has a cold & cough. Is azithral 100 liquid useful or not, and if so, at what dosage? ## My baby is 5 years old and he is suffering from a cold. The doctor prescribed azithral liquid 100. Is it the right medicine for her? How do I use it?

Can taking Robitussin cough syrup 4x a day turn your urine red? All of a sudden my urine has turned red almost looking like blood. ## That is not a common side effects, as listed by the FDA. They typically include nausea, dizziness, vomiting, and dry mouth. Anytime you experience something unusual like this, it is best to have it checked out by your doctor, for your safety. Are you on any other medications? Do you have any other diagnosed medical conditions? ## This happened to me now. I am clean sexual-wise but after taking a bottle of Robitussin over 2 days, the same thing happened to me.

Im pregnant. Can i take teczine? I have asthma. I regularly take romilast 10.im 29yrs old. 1 m pregnant. For 2days im feeling tonsil pain. Fever. Plz let me khew ## This medication is an antihistamine that is used to treat allergies, so it will not help with such symptoms, anyway, according to the NIH, nor will it help stop an asthma attack. And while you are pregnant, it would be best not to take anything, unless your doctor instructs you to do so. Have you consulted a doctor, yet? Are you on any other medications? ## Wat can I use idnt want a baby is it fyn if I use anaerobyl

I was taking 2 pills per day (1AM & 1PM)of EX400 Gauifenesin to loosen thick mucous for 3 days and stop, then I experience sudden severe nausea and vomiting (6x) for 3 hours. Then I took Reglan & Benadryl to stop the dizziness and vomiting. ## Reglan?? Oh my!! Have you not seen all the warnings about reglan and tardiff disconesia sp? I used to take reglan for swallowing until it started to make my face grimace!! As for Guafenesin / Guafinex (cough syrup) you should see the properties in that drug. My sister has a seizure disorder and if anything cold-related is treated with Guafenesin or anything containing Guafinex ...she is screwed, and automatically goes into seizure state. So I would be careful of BOTH ## Amy, how are you doing, now? Just taking it for 3 days should not caus...

Pill is oval, scored on both sides, nothing on the back. "x" on both halves on the front. I found it at work. ## Hi Ron, A white oval pill with X X on it is reportedly identified as Xyzal allergy (24 hour) relief, containing 5mgs of levocetirizine. For verification, the National Drug Code is listed as 41167-3510. Finding allergy medicine at work doesn't strike me as anything of concern and seems like it could be fairly common. Hope this helps! ## This is identified as a 5mg Xyzal Allergy 24hr tablet (containing Levocetirizine Dihydrochloride) if it is like this photo here: [1]. Xyzal Allergy-Relief Pill Image
