Basically in a nut shell salicylate acid blocks guaifenesin st the renal tubule level, so while it can still decongest, the use we use it for is rendered ineffective. The same receptors that guaifenesin needs to go in at the tubules is the same that salicylate acid parks in. This happens when you apply them directly to your skin because it is directly absorbed into your blood stream like any other topical medication, hence you need far less potency since your liver is not metabolizing it.
twice daily about six days before suspected ovulation day until the thermal shift. Make sure the product only contains guaifenesin without added decongestants or antihistamines, which could dry your CM.
good luck i hope you'll get BFP soon......
Guaifenesin, how much is an Overdose? My daughter 11 years old 100 lbs (big for her age), took (the correct dose) 5mL cough and cold medicine that had the following in that dose. Guaifenesin, USP 100 mg, Dextromethorpan HBr, USP 10 mL. Phenylephedrine HCI, USB 5mg. But then she also took (the correct dose) 10 mg of a prescription medicine Guaifenesin-Codeine syrup (generic for Robitussin AC syrup). It doesn't state on the label the quantity of Guaifenesin mg in the 5mL dose.
I was sick with a cold 2 weeks ago. Never really got congested but sore throat hit me hard as well as fatigue ear pain just felt terrible . The doc said it was a virus with Eustachian tube dysfunction . Sge put me on Flonase The sore throat went awar but was left with a persistent cough for a week . I would wake up and it was so hard to swallow because the Mucus in my throat was so sick.
The alternative is guaifenesin, which you can buy over-the-counter. Mucinex contains guaifenesin, but I would get the plain guaifenesin. It works very well.
I do know you only need the plain kind, nothing else should be in it just guaifenesin. If you get the one with that is mixed it can have the opposite reaction. Also you need to drink plenty of water!! YOu have to do this in order for it to work. I just started taking clomid and i read to start the guaifenesin on day 10 till ovulation. On a website for fertility i read that you need to take 200mg three times a day!
You can usually find a store brand of robitussin that has only Guaifenesin in it. The ingredient is made to break up mucus, but if taken while you ovulate it can make your CM more compatible with sperm.
Currently taking it as OBGYN prescribed! Have a horrible cold and its helping!
Guaifenesin is pregnancy catergory C which means that it is only supposed to be taken when the benefits outway the risks.
Is there any cold medicine I can take because Tylenol isn't doing the trick?
You can buy the generic of Guaifenesin in liquid or tablet form. I think the tablets come in a higher concentration. (400 mg?) How it works is that it thins the cervical mucus in the same way it thins the mucus in your chest or nose when your congested. Make sure what you buy only has Guaifenesin in it, though, or you might end up taking something that contributes to drying out the CM more. Good luck!
What's a robitussin plain? Like what does it look like? What's the exact name? I'm kinda confused.can Anyone give me at least a pic.... :/ just to make sure.
You can get a mucolytic (mucus thinner) called guaifenesin over-the-counter. Mucinex contains gauifenesin but I would get the plain guaifenesin. Vitamin B5 also thins mucus. He would have to take 500 mg a day. No side effects. Then there are anti-inflammatories, among them Vitamin C. Of course, stopping smoking would help the most, but you have had no success in that area. Maybe once he gets more comfortable at reducing the coughing he will think about quitting.
For the past two and a half weeks I have had a cough. For the first week or so it was just a small cough, then it developed into coughing fits.
For the past week the cough has led to nosebleeds, at least once a day, and vomiting, but only the once.
The cough produces white-ish phlegm and a lot of spit. It is hard to breathe whilst getting rid of the spit. During the night I wake up once or twice to cough and this often leaves me dry heaving.
FDA pregnancy category C. It is not known whether dextromethorphan and guaifenesin will harm an unborn baby. Do not use this medicine without a doctor's advice if you are pregnant.
GH should also be tested at least once just for source. GH is what
