Hydrocodone and guaifenesin syrup

Common Questions and Answers about Hydrocodone and guaifenesin syrup

vicodin

Avatar n tn For OTC cough syrup, I use Delsym (Dextromethorphan polistirex) or Mucinex (Guaifenesin). I've never had a problem with either, and I'd consider myself fairly sensitive to cold medications. When I need the big guns, I get my PCP to prescribe Tussionex (chlorpheniramine and hydrocodone) aka. "Liquid Gold". I love this stuff. It's expensive, hence the name. But you WILL stop coughing, and you WILL sleep!
Avatar n tn Well as happens I am taking the medication for different reason and different form (pill format and control of dystonic spasms) and I've taken it as a cough medicine in the past and at prescription dosages it can have side effects of concern in higher dosages.
1777912 tn?1314474892 iv been doing alot of looking on the internet about this sort of thing. there is a cough syrup called Robitussin (guaifenesin cough syrup) i know it sounds stupid because it is cough syrup, but as it has guaifenesin in it, it clears not only the mucas on your chest but also makes your cervical mucas thinner and runnier so the seman can swim through better. look it up on google. but make sure you get the one with guaifenesin in it as the other ones can dry up the cervical mucas .
1047147 tn?1328906154 The name Robitussin was used in the title of this FAQ as it is a common brand of cough syrup in the United States. It is used on the fertility boards and newsgroups in the same manner as saying Band-Aid for an adhesive strip used to cover a cut. Any expectorant that contains guaifenesin as the only active ingredient is fine to use. What kind of Robitussin is used to improve cervical mucus? One should buy the plain kind with no letters after it.
Avatar f tn Hi i can confirm that the cough syrup is robitussin chesty cough medicine that contains (guaifenesin) only.Its in a red and black box.I have never noticed my cervical mucus ever before and this was my first month on clomid.I took robitussin every morning and evening (5ml dose).You only take it after AF has ended and stop when you ovulate.I drank a glass of grapefruit juice every morning as its supposed to help CM too.
Avatar f tn Mix some lemon juice and honey together.
682098 tn?1236908245 I was wondering if albterol cough syrup might help with my coughing and breathing. I am not a fan of inhalers nor do I like taking pills. Today has been horrible, everytime I open my mouth to talk I cough. I don't feel weezy it's a lot of coughing. I have been extremely busy so that bring about the coughing. I wanted to see if my doctor would call in a prescription for the cough syrup but I wanted to see if maybe someone could give me advise to what you think.
1386765 tn?1451164337 I am not sure if this works or if this is a coincidence but I have to say the two times I used it I got pregnant. Try taking cough syrup. Just get the pain ole Robitussin with guaifenesin. Don't get it with any other active ingredients. The guaifenesin is the ingredient to loosen mucus. We generally use it for chest congerstion but it also loosens our lower region's mucus wich in turn help aid the sperm to its final goal...your egg.

1190279 tn?1324936257 I'm on 50mg of clomid days 3 to 7 and today is cd 15. I have real bad pain down there and i think i'll be ovulating soon....is it too late to take guaifenesin? I have it in a syrup...how much should i be taking? I'm quit troubled because i do try and check my cervical mucus but it's not stretchy like it should be :-( It's watery and cloudy.
Avatar f tn A friend of mine was TTC for five years and her husband had low motility. She started taking cough syrup and within 6-12 months, got pregnant and miscarried a few weeks in (in Nov.) & now is 5 weeks pregnant again and everything is looking good. I have been TTC for two years and am wondering if I should try it. Is it safe? I actually took Mucinex for sinus congestion for two days & today I have the egg white, stretchy, CM. That is what made me think of my friends situation. Any ideas?
Avatar m tn Well, tussionex is part hydrocodone which is a semi-synthetic opioid and part chlorpheniramine which is a type of antihistamine. So some people can be more sensitive to the hydrocodone (vicadin) part of the cough syrup. It is a fairly addictive drug and some people have genetics (an enzyme called cpy 2d6) that increases the duration the hydrocodone is elevated in their blood. This leads to exaggerated effects or feeling of euphora and other symptoms.
Avatar n tn This cough syrup combines an anti-histamine (chlorpheniramine) with a codeine-like cough suppressant called hydrocodone. Tussionex stops coughing well, but it carries a risk of potential side effects, including drowsiness, constipation, lightheadedness, and vomiting. The hydrocodone component is also an addictive medication and should be used with caution.
Avatar f tn Just read somewhere about Guaifenesin helping in getting you pregnant by thinning your cervical fluid, which enables sperm to travel through your cervix and fertilize an egg. Read this: http://www.babycenter.com/404_can-taking-cough-syrup-help-me-conceive_1336322.bc Hope it helps. Am thinking of giving it a try. SSBD to all!!!
307487 tn?1269604927 Make sure the only active ingredient is guaifenesin! It helped me get more CM! I hadn't had ANY for a year and then I used Mucinex (KIDS) and I had CM!!!!!!!!!!! I didn't get pregnant but it did make me hopeful!
Avatar m tn Taking hycodan for sleep is not wise but I know it's done. I doubt if you would become physically addicted to the cough syrup using it 3 out of seven nights. But stranger things have happened and I believe anything is possible. But cough syrup is for coughs and if you don't have one stay away from the syrup! You can get addicted easily... What other meds do you take?
674555 tn?1272600376 im a member on this site and my lil brother called me cause he was high and (because im in college he thought id know) me mixed hydrocodone (10mg) cough syrup and a tylenol 3 (30mg codeine) with a shot of vodka and i want to know if thats a dangerous mix after he did it of course ...i honestly dont know and was wondering if anyone does??
Avatar f tn I am 7 weeks pregnant, and need some comfort from anyone with information on taking hydrocodone while pregnant. I am so scared for my baby. I have cut down to 1 and a half a day. But I keep seeing commercials of babies with birth defects and I don't want to ruin my baby's life. Please keep in mind I take this medication because I had several failed back surgeries..

Avatar f tn pour it down the drain and get some OTC cough syrup.. I relapsed in Dec/Jan and it all started with bronchitis and a bottle of cough syrup with codeine (not even hydrocodone).. Good job on being honest with your idiot doctor.. now just pour it out and move on. No need to be worried or dwell at all.. Just be on your a-game cause chances are even a teaspoon will kick those cravings into overdrive so its best to not have it around.. good luck!
1106767 tn?1315050974 I have done some research and it appears that clomid can dry up cervical mucus in some people.But if you take robitussin that contains the ingredient (guaifenesin) only and take 1 teaspoon morning and night its supposed to help.But you only take it after your period ends and stop when you ovulate.Drinking a daily glass of grapefruit juice also helps as does eating sweet potato or yams.I am using conceive plus also which is a lubricant similar to preseed.
Avatar f tn I've been waking up with a runny nose and a sore throat... which means is about to get bad. Can I take anything to prevent it getting bad?
Avatar f tn All opiates/opioids are cough supressants. Promethazine cough syrup can be compounded with either hydrocodone or codeine. Taking an occasional Vicodin while on treatment is not drug abuse.
Avatar f tn Two weeks ago I have a severe sinus infection, the doctor prescribed some azithromycin, prednisone, and hydrocodone cough syrup, I only took the cough syrup twice, it was too strong and made me hallucinate. However, I now have a stiff neck that is extremely painful at times. It wakes me up in the middle of the night and I can't continue to stay in bed. Yet, when I get up and sit in the chair I am exhausted. The stiffness and pain is on the right side of my neck and head.
Avatar f tn Robitussin works on the cervical mucus and increases your chances of getting pregnant Robitussin is a popular brand of cough syrup and it might be surprising to consider its relation with fertility. But the fact is that this expectorant is used to loosen and thin mucus of a different kind too, called cervical mucus, in women. Robitussin is only a specific brand and any expectorant that contains guaifenesin as the only active ingredient can be used in its place.
Avatar f tn i was at 100 mgs of hydrocodone/which is the drug in ur syrup/ for 4 yrs and my physical wds were over in 4 days..went back to work day 5...exercising helped..Moving, Medhelp and Meetings is how I made it...Move even if u do not feel like it There is usually 5 mgs of hydro in one tsp of the cough surup..some have 6 mgs. so however many tsps u did daily would approximate ur use amount if u multiply it by 5 another thing in ur favor is 6 months is not a long time...
