Cheratussin And Alcohol
UpdatedI was out drinking several glasses of wine and came home and took a teaspoon of cheratussin ac. Is there any risk of interaction?

Actually yes, there might be, since this medication contains Codeine and should not be combined with alcohol, since both of them cause depression of the central nervous system, according to the FDA. Combining them could result in lowered heart rate, lowered blood pressure, severe drowsiness, severe dizziness, and could be fatal, if too much of each is combined.
Did you experience any adverse effects?
I took Cheratussin 4 hours before I drank a shot and a half of alcohol. Will it be ok for me to go to sleep? I drank the alcohol 2 hours ago.
