Chest cold mucinex
Common Questions and Answers about Chest cold mucinex
chest
I need some Nyquil... not mucinex. I hate the medications pregnant girls are allowed to have.
My OB says Mucinex (the regular kind, not DM or anything) is okay, but a lot of women try to tough it out with honey and humidifiers. Sorry you're feeling so bad, being pregnant and sick is not fun.
I agree with Lilslava. My dr. gave me those 2 medications for mine along with Robitussin CF. It took some time to work though. I was severely congested, had a loose cough, runny and stuffy nose. He also recommended Mucinex. I didn't buy it because when you take it, and if you have chest congestion, when you cough, it literally makes you cough up that mucus and Mucinex doesn't care where you are or what you're doing LOL! It depends on your symptoms. But check with your dr.
I have had a cold for over a week, and my Dr just said take mucinex. I have been taking it since Thursday and it's not helping. I have such a bad sinus headache that I can feel it in my neck. It's horrible. I've had the This headache for a week now. Has anyone Dr given them the OK to take anything? I'm 16 weeks.
Joy, right around 22 weeks or so I got horribly sick with a head cold that turned into some type of chest cold. I feel your pain. It must have lasted for two weeks. My ob told me about mucinex and also did you know that you can take claratin. Claratin and tylenol can be taken at the same time although the tylenol only seems to help with the fever and nothing else. I also did two sinus washes. You can buy those at any drug store for about $6 to $15 depending on the brand and number of packets.
Do any mommies know of any cold medicine that i can take while being pregnant? I caught a little cold from my son. Worst feeling ever.
My docs list says one benadryl a day is safe.. also you can take sudafed, zyrtec or claratin also. If you get a lot of mucus you are allowed to take the plain mucinex. I've personally used mucinex and zyrtec. Also, only regular tylenol is safe. I hope you feel better!
My doctor said I could take robitusson DM for cough & cold & mucinex DM for congestion buy only if it was that bad also vicka works magic rub it on your chest behind your ears but only if you don't plan on going out once you aplly it. Even some honey & lime tea!
Tylenol
I am almost 10wks and have come down with a cold. Sinus pressure, coughing and chest pain. For my previous pregnancies my ob said i could take plain mucinex. So i took it a couple if days this week and it has not really helped. So when looking for other options online I'm reading that you cannot take ANYTHING during the first trimester. So now I'm sick and scared since I've taken the, mucinex already and have also taken dramamine a few times due to dizziness and nausea.
All off a sudden, out of the blue I get this terrible cold, cought chest congestion, ringing in ears. Im so tired I dont have energy to get out of bed. Went to urgent care and they gave me iv fluids, I was dehydrated at that point. Dr couldn't give me anything. However, recommended robitussin peak cold, no alcohol in it. This is for the cough and congestion. Cephacol cough drops to soothe my rawt throat and tylenol regular strength to help with the pains. Twice a day only.
My dry eye is treatable with Celluvisc and Refresh Gel drops and like all with dry eye ( moderate and above ) there are good and bad days--However I have run into a difficult situation related to the common cold. What meds can I take that will not effect my dry eye ???? I recently had a cold and took cold meds and my eyes burnt so bad ( even with drops ) that it was near unbearable . The Doc and Pharmacy both said it was the antihistomine and I quit the meds which relieved the dry eye symptoms.
My problem is I felt fine other than a productive cough prior to taking the mucinex so is this feeling from the mucinex or am i developing pneumonia? Has anyone who has taken mucinex while pregnant felt this way?? Sorry for the overly long question, thanks in advance for any advice. Oh and of course OB an Primary doc's office are both closed so i can't call until tomorrow. And Baby is still pretty active so I don't think it affected her.
try Sudafed, its always hel;ped me when I had sinus infections, u can take mucinex for the mucus, Tyenol cold and sinus congestion, and Claritin allergy if its allergy related, get losts of rest, Vitamin A,C& D is a good supplement for sinuses. hope these help u and hope u feel better soon! good luck hun!!!!
right now i have a lot of phlem, i have body ( on the back also) and head aches, nasal congestion and I snezze a lot, ocassionaly my chest hurts on the sides or in the middle, but before the cold it was there and diminishing ) before the cold I felt a way better, only head aches, phlem, and occasionally a little bit of chest pain, I`ve never coughed nor had fever since I initially had pneumonia. the only medicine that Im taking is mucinex (guaifenesin) to thin out the phlem.
