Allergies, Cough & Cold Forums (Page 93)

I was prescribed Moxif 400 for suffering from cough for over 8 weeks with no relief from other antibiotics and cough syrups, anti allergic tablets etc. However, within 30 mins of taking the first dose, I felt as if I have no strength to sit or move and my BP fell to 110/60 with pulse 49. I recovered in about 3-4 hours of rest but still the fatigue was present. I discontinued it after 1st tab - am not sure will it have any long term impact for incomplete dose? Is there any other alternative?

Some antihistamines will show pos. for amphetamines in ua screen, what about this one? ## Hello, Just to confirm, I have also located a pill with the imprint ZC 02, and it happens to be Promethazine HCl (25 mg); which is used medically as an antihistamine antiemetic.

Dont know the name of them. We just found them in my moms things & she needs to know what they are. Thank u!! ## Hello, It could possibly be an OTC pill called Chlorpheniramine Maleate 4 mg; an antihistamine for sinus and cold relief. It is a round yellow pill that should have the imprint 255. However, since there is no marking on your pill, I can't be 100% certain. You can learn more about this drug on the page for Chlorpheniramine Details I hope this helps! ## All Rx and OTC drugs in the US are required by the FDA to have an imprint, otherwise it could be a vitamin, herbal, energy, diet, foreign or illicit.

Yes It's from the U.S. it is a diphenhydramine. Diphenhydramine is an antihistamine used to relieve allergic rhinitis (seasonal allergy) symptoms including sneezing, runny nose, itching, and watery eyes and to relieve itching and swelling associated with uncomplicated allergic skin reactions. It is also used as a short-term sleep aid, to control coughs due to colds or allergy, and to prevent/treat motion sickness. Diphenhydramine is available in nonprescription products alone and in combination with other nonprescription drugs, to treat symptoms of allergy, colds, and upper respiratory infections. The specific one your referring to I know for 100% is a shop rite brand because I use them myself. Though to be on the safe side I would never ever use any drug (OTC, PRESCRIBED or HOMEOPA...

I have been taking ornex maximum strength for years for migraine headaches and sinus headaches. It has worked so well!! Now I can't find anyone who still sells them. Does anyone know if they are discontinued or where I can buy them?? ## Have you tried searching for the main active ingredients in Ornex maximum strength? I found that they are Acetaminophen 500mg + Pseudoephedrine HCL 30mg. I think you'll be happy to know that both of these ingredients can be found over-the-counter at pretty much any pharmacy or drug store. If you can't find Ornex there, then it's not guaranteed that you find these two drugs in the same dosage as Ornex, but at least you can still have access to them when needed. I hope this helps! ## I know Ornex is the only thing over the counter that woul...

In reading messages from other people, some have been able to obtain Disophrol from the UK. How do you go about ordering it? Is there a website? ZS ## It is also still available in Canada and there have been posts from people that have ordered it from there, as well. The best suggestion I can make is to do some searching and see what websites have it in stock and if they ship to the U.S. The shipping fees could make it quite expensive, but if it's the only medication that worked for you, then it's most likely worth it. I believe it would be legal to order and import it, in specific quantities, but I am not certain since that's not my area of expertise, most sites that offer it for sale will provide those details, so make sure to check. Are there any other questions or commen...

However, the Tussionex dosage is lower for children ages 6 to 11, as well as for elderly people, who may be more sensitive to the medication. The dosage also depends on other medications you are currently taking.
