Common Questions and Answers about Tussionex over the counter

tussionex

Avatar m tn t damage your brain any more than anyone else who took a bottle of Tussionex over a one week period. If it caused brain damage they would take it off the market. It's not going to take your brain another 90 days to heal. That said, you can talk yourself into feeling bad, just like you can talk yourself into feeling better. It's called "visualization" and athletes do it to see themselves being successful.

Avatar f tn Anyone have experience with any over the counter depression medicine that works well?
286124 tn?1214938528 wow! actually i went to the ER because of severe cramping, from tussionex...i think it was the worst in that area for some reason than any other drug i ever took... i had severe cramping and didnt understand what it was from, a lot of pain!!! i now know it was the tussionex, but it wouldnt have happened had i taken it properly...the tussionex caused this...it must have been because i was "backed up"...this was a few years ago now...be careful, and watch your diet...
Avatar n tn thanks for your informatic reply!
Avatar f tn when i said tussionex is amazing I did not mean to imply it is a good drug to abuse. It is like any other opiate. if it is abused it turns on you. I took it for bronchitis and it was effective for that. Good to hear that you are trying to kick the habit after several attempts.
Avatar n tn If your doc has been prescribing it more than 6 or 8 weeks at most, you need to find another doctor who can treat the underlying condition that is causing the cough. Tussionex only covers up the symptoms, and as you know now, it cause unexpected trouble in the form of physical dependency.
636562 tn?1223667445 I recently had a bad reaction to Tussionex Suspension and had to go to the ER. I agree with the doctor that I had a reaction to the Tussionex, but I'm wondering why it affected me so long after I initially took it (I didn't have any symptoms for the first 7-8 hours). I apologize if this is in the wrong forum, but I thought a pharmacist would be the best one to answer my question. How do extended release medications work?
Avatar n tn I'm a 65 year-old entertainer (singer) and my chronic post-nasal drip/constant throat clearing and also coughing is driving me absolutely crazy...stressed out when I entertain. I think I've tried almost everything out there over the years, be it natural, homeopathic etc... and I'm still stuck with it. My allergist gave up on me. Had all the allergy shots available on the planet (allergies to dust/dust mites) and today, I read about Tussionex.
Avatar f tn I have a cold an taking no medicine is killing me. Is there Any over the counter meds I can take?
4371309 tn?1357956329 My Dr at Kaiser said that the OTC and the ones they prescribe are the same. I didn't argue with her since she has the degree and just bough some from the pharmacy. When ever your next visit is with your OB check with her/him.
5079728 tn?1365549989 So any medication that you can go in and buy without a prescription is considered an over the counter medication. This would include every single med lined up on the shelves ..... pain killers, cough meds, diarrhea meds, nausea meds, stomach meds, anti-itching meds, everything. If I recall correctly, you have cirrhosis, so you really do have to be careful not to take anything that the doctor does not approve first.
Avatar f tn An over the counter medication is any medication that can be purchased without a prescription "over the counter", but does not make the medication safer and needs to be taken according to the directions on the package and there is a need to be more vigilent and take into consideration individual health, the benefits versus the risks and potential interactions with any prescribed meidcations.
Avatar n tn But, I would like to know if there is an over the counter medicine. I only get the urgency after a little stress. It stops after 10 hours or so on it's own. But, a cheaper "as needed" OTC medicine would sure be something I am interested in.
765828 tn?1306263868 , there could be a serious reason why this is happening, i dont mean to scare you, it could be that you are constipated and pushing to much, but if the bowl is filled up, i would call your doctor right away, and this way, they can rule out different causes and hopefully get to the problem, i wouldnt take anything over the counter until i was seen by a doctor, good luck, let us know how you make out.
Avatar f tn yes yes, I am clean from Vicoden, Antidepresants but still am using a sleep aid, have been using over the counter meds for sleep since the 80's then went to prescription sleep aid and now I only sleep 3 or 4 hours using them. I am going to go off them soon. My Dr would like to see me wait until Jan just because I came off two meds this year and had surgery's but please don't go to prescription sleep aids I think it is harder to get off them than OCT.
Avatar m tn I end up running out and going through withdrawals which almost kill me each time from lack of sleep, not being able to eat and drink. i need some sound solid over the counter advice cause pm meds and pepto nor immodium work so help me please I am alone and need help.

Avatar n tn If you prove not to have asthma, aren’t smoking and didn’t have whooping cough,you should contact your doctor and request a prescription for a strong cough suppressant You could try an over-the-counter cough suppressant with “DM” and if that doesn’t provide relief of the cough, then call or visit your doctor to make sure that nothing more serious is causing your cough (you may need a chest X-ray to do that) and get a stronger cough preparation such as Tussionex.
Avatar f tn Thank you for your comments, Dr. It was only that one incident (thank goodness) - personally, I do think it was the Tussionex. I am much better - except for the residual cough. It's pretty much non-productive but hanging on. Others who have had this cold say the same thing. I've been taking honey and drinking lots of warm/hot liquids.
Avatar f tn You can do it if you really want to but only you can do the work. Losing a bf is NOT the end of the world. You had a life before them and you will have a life after them. But doing drugs to numb the pain is not the answer. you need to talk to someone about how youre feeling. Trust me this is not the way to do it.
Avatar n tn I have a bottle of Tussionex since the last time i was pretty sick. It was filled may 15 2008 and Im not sure what the expiration date is on it. would it be fine to take?
