ibuprofen

Avatar f tn I have had the flu this past week and have been taking nyquil, ibuprofen, and alkazelter, I just found out that I am 5 weeks pregnant and I'm am hoping that this medicine I have been taking is NOT going to affect my baby?! If anyone knows please help me out I am going to the doctor Monday but I do not want to continue to take medicine if its going to harm my baby. Thank you!
Avatar f tn I am having the same problem and the doctor told me it was safe to take Sudafed, benedryl, and Robitussin.
Avatar f tn Nope. Ibuprofen firstly won't help with a cold at all. It only relieves fever, pain, and swelling. Second, ibuprofen shouldn't be used in pregnancy and on the rare occasion that your Dr gives the okay, it is NEVER to be used in the 3rd trimester.
Avatar f tn I don't remember my last period and I haven't had an ultra sound how will I know how far I am in my pregnancy? In December of 2012 I had a miscarriage just before Christmas heavy heavy bleeding and I just don't recall my MP in jan. and I tested positive this month for pregnancy,and also I'm terrified because I didn't know I was pregnant and I took ibuprofen and NyQuil earlier this month FEB.
10746163 tn?1412523935 Thanks Barb for responding, I have an appointment set up for a MMR shot with my DR office on Tuesday, so I will be talking with them about my sickness as well. I don't think I will be getting my shot either, just a guess. But I just need something to get me by the next 2 days and thought I'd find out about what the side effects were if I took the Nyquil, I just don't want any complications in the process. I took the Nyquil last night anyways and slept for awhile.
Avatar n tn anti-histamines are most commonly used for allergies such as benadryl, but is often found in OTC sleep aids, and some older anti-histamines have anxiolytic effects, and many other uses. Taking nyquil every so often will help you get to sleep and stay a sleep due to a cold or irritation, but its not relally useful for insomnia. theres where more prescription sleepaids come into the mix, but enough rambling, your body will still burn calories while you sleep if you take nyquil...
Avatar n tn I think it *is* likely your medicine extravaganza during your bronchitis may have temporarily elevated your liver enzymes. Just go get retested in a few weeks. Also, mixing Nyquil with the tylenol is a big no, no. Nyquil has alcohol and, when mixed with tylenol, can do (tah dah) exactly what happened to you! I'm sure one time won't damage your liver, but now you know! Take care.
Avatar f tn I have been using vices vapor rub, cough drops, honey, humidifier and just straight up tylenol. I really wish I could just take Nyquil...as trying to sleep at night is nearly impossible.
Avatar f tn Not nyquil. But if you have cold like a symptoms Tylenol makes cold and flu drowsy med and thats okay and it knocked me out.
Avatar f tn I would certainly make a call to your pediatrician and tell them what happened , they may say keep and eye on the child or bring him in..good luck ...
Avatar f tn You heat up 2 tbsp of coconut oil, and swish/gargle it for about 4 minutes and spit it out. It pulls all the bacteria and toxins out of your mouth, throat and nose. I felt A LOT better the next morning after doing it, after being skeptical about holistic remedies for a long time.
Avatar f tn I did take some nyquil last night and woke up feeling a tad bit better.
Avatar f tn I don't think nyquil okay but I'm not sure.
Avatar n tn I took sudafed once and almost passed out. My doctor said that Nyquil can actually help PVCs so I take it frequently.

10275373 tn?1409333029 Im 21 weeks and I just caught a cold my head hurts my nose is stuffed and every time I cough I feel the baby kick I feel like she's trying to signal me to stop bothering her lol ughh I miss nyquil lol
1211960 tn?1272974502 Everyone reacts differently to medicines, and there maybe be a low percent side effect for what you are experiancing. Also, Nyquil does have some alcohol in it so make sure it is not interacting with another medication you are taking. I have been on medications before that require you do not take in any alcohol whatsoever, including cough syrup and mouth wash.
1162258 tn?1306916207 hello ladies. trying to find out if any of you guys have ever taken nyquil for your cold while pregnant. I feel like crap and i know nyquil would wipe it out but i'm too scared to take it.
Avatar f tn Well, i got a good nite sleep, took two melatonin (5mg) and some nyquil like you said, and slept thro the whole nite!! Thank you for advise. Well, im feeling much better today, a llittle tired and slow moving, but at least the nausea is gone, and hopefully no headaches, i have ibuprofen ready for that. Im half way seeing the light, thanks for all ithe input, and im gonna keep trying, have a busy day ahead of me so thats good.
1154462 tn?1327434379 ve battled with a cold and sore throat the entire past week. I thought light of it and just treated by resting/Ibuprofen. Last night I left at 2 am to get some Nyquil from nearby Safeway, turns out they're closed from 1-5am. the local 7-eleven also didn't have anything. I came back disappointed. Figured i'll pick up the meds from Walmart on the way to work at 4 since I couldn't sleep anyways!
8585833 tn?1399748005 Nyquil has alcohol in it so i know that was one of the reasons she told me not to take it....and both nyquil and dayquil i believe may have aspirin or something along those lines in them which isnt recommended during pregnancy.
Avatar f tn The first 3 days were difficult with all the symptoms and the rebound pain was tremendous.I took 2 extrastrength tylenol and 800mg ibuprofen every 4 hours for about 3 or 4 days and the pain subsided.I was able to decrease the ibuprofen,but staill take 2 extrastrength tylenol every 4 hours,max 8/day.I took all the vitamins b12 1000mcg/day under the tongue,vitd2000u/day,omegas,b complex with zinc.I also had epsom salt soaks.I now control my pain with otc pain meds.
