Avatar n tn Well, the doctor prescribed 1 pill(amoxicillin) each day. The sudafed has only phenylephrine in it,and it is only for nasal decongestant.. It has no asprin or acetaminophen in it. The excedrin tension has caffeine and free from asprin but has acteaminophen.
12275041 tn?1435515465 Two weeks ago I went to the doctor which they diagnosed me with an upper respiratory infection and prescribed amoxicillin and sudafed. Friday I finished the amoxicillin and I feel so much better. Come Saturday all of my symptoms of coughing, congestion, and not being able to sleep or breathe at night return and now I am coughing so bad it gets to the point where I start puking.
Avatar n tn Assuming it was a sinus infection, they prescribed amoxicillin, and that took care of the symptoms in under a week. About two weeks after being off of the amoxicillin, the symptoms began to return. I went back to the doctor and the prescribed some different antibiotic, which again, worked fine. Yet again, a few weeks after being done with that antibiotic, the symptoms returned. I opted to not use antibiotics to see if it would go away on its own, and it did after nearly a month.
Avatar f tn Being sick with a cold and cough while pregnant is the worst. Any sickness and pregnant *****! It takes so much longer to get better! I have a stuffy/runny nose and a horrible cough that will not go away! What are some over the counter medicine that you moms have taken to get rid of a cough? Anything? I am coughing so much that my chest hurts and throat now :( my doctor prescribed me z pac last time I had this 3 weeks ago and it didn't work.
Avatar f tn I'm 16, and I recently got put on amoxicillin for a really bad eat infection. When I went to the doctor, he said he saw no problems other than in my left sinuses which he assumed was the problem for my ear ache/runny nose/sore throat, etc. I've been taking nasonex, sudafed, and just today stopped taking my amoxicillin pills.
903138 tn?1266767041 Hello, I am a 19 year old female experiencing right ear and throat pain. I have a history of Eustachian Tube Dysfunction and have had surgery several times to drain fluid in my ears via Ear Tubes. Last week (11/26 and11/27) I had a sore throat, fever, chills (the whole 9 yards). By Thursday, I was feeling much better and only the right side of my throat was sore. However, by Friday night, the pain in my throat had moved up into my ear.

427258 tn?1266445242 I thought I was coming down with a simple cold on Thursday and of course b/c I'm pregnant I'm have to be careful of what I take. I went out and bought Sudafed & Robitussin and thought I was getting better, but by Monday I caved and went to the doctor. I have bronchitis...enlarged tonsils...pressure in the ears...YUCKY! The doctor gave me amoxicillin and I'm feeling a little better, but still have no voice! Baby CJ is doing well.
Avatar f tn I went in the shower and felt faint, called for my Mum and after a few seconds I did actually faint and lose consciousness. For the next few weeks I was feeling really tired all the time, nauseated and getting bouts of dizziness so I basically spent weeks in bed. Due to being so inactive and hardly eating I ended up in hospital for 5 days with painful impacted constipation.
1221453 tn?1281092342 I have a sinus infection and my doc prescribed amoxicillin and said I could take one of four things: claritin, mucinex, sudafed (only the plain kind -- little red pill), and zyrtek. I was happy when she said mucinex because that is what I usually take when I wasn't preggo and it worked really well for me.
Avatar f tn t fully take care of the symptoms, it is safe to take though! Also on my list of safe meds are sudafed, Claritin and zyrtec. Hopefully one of those will help you ladies out!
Avatar f tn 8, the same night the pain was really strong to the point where it would only subside if I was putting pressure on it with an ice pack or hot water bottle, doctor confirmed I had a middle ear infection and prescribed me 5 days of amoxicillin. I took them as directed but after the 5 days I still had ear pain, it was no where near as bad but still prevalent, I spoke with a doctor and she prescribed me 5 days of erythromycin and said it can sometimes take 10 days to clear.
Avatar f tn t make much sense to me..its the same active ingredientc(guaf).. But I followed orders) and sudafed(also plain - ewithout psuedo). Another week went by, only got worse. Finally got a z pack and cough syrup prescribed. Another week and I was better. 3 weeks sick altogether. Used humidifier at night and Vicks too. Good luck. Its miserable!

Avatar f tn 3rd dr after looking at my throat said I did not have oral thrush I have tried to scrape these patches off but they are adhered firmly to my mouth. The week before I had oral sex I had been to the dentist and was feeling bad so took amoxicillin then got to filling better and quit taking it. Also I started using a mouth wash which I have never used before. Now I am on sudafed, Zyrtec nasal spray and since I told my dr I had tested positive for yeast I'm on fluconazole for 14 days.
1519309 tn?1290956580 I've experienced this often. Sounds to me like a sinus infection with post-nasal drip. If you let the symptoms go unchecked, the mucus could go down into your bronchial tube and cause bronchitis, or even into your lungs and give you pnemonia. At least this is what my experience has taught me. If I were you I would use sudafed or mucinex, and if chloraseptic spray would offer relief for the sore throat, it couldn't hurt.
Avatar f tn I was told by my doctor that Sudafed was safe to take, so I took it and had a very healthy pregnancy and baby, but some people will say absolutely no to take that. If there is a sore throat, boil some water, squeeze a lemon into the cup and add some honey, that helped with sore throats during pregnancy. Also for sore throat, gargle with warm salt water (you might gag, cause it's disgusting) but the salt kills infection. So those are two ways that you can get relief without medication.
Avatar n tn ve tried Sudafed, Tylenol Sinus Pain and Congestion Severe, and good old Tylenol, nothing is helping THAT much, just a little. Do you have any recommendations? This is now starting to raise my stress level a bit, and, as a student, I'm finding it harder to concentrate on my studies as I'm fixated on the headaches and ringing ears. Nothing is getting worse, but boy, it is not getting better! Thank you for your time and informative answers, it's really helping me.
Avatar f tn Is it safe to take sudafed while youre pregnant? Im 22 weeks and I just want to make sure its not going to hurt my little girl?
Avatar f tn My dr. ok just plain Sudafed.
Avatar f tn I've been sick off and on a lot with my sinuses my ob told me to take sudafed so I'm taking the nasal decongestant sudafed that the pharmacy said was safe. My concern is I haven't heard good things about taking it anyone else taking it and everything turned out ok with their baby? 29weeks tomorrow also.
Avatar f tn I am a 13 year old girl and I have been taking sudafed for 4 days now and OI was just awoken shaking uncontrollably could this be why? This discussion is related to <a href="/posts/Undiagnosed-Symptoms/shaking-at-night-when-I-wake-up-in-the-middle-of-the-night/show/199072">shaking at night when I wake up in the middle of the night</a>.
Avatar f tn Im 6 months and I am so congested and have ear ache, is it safe to take sudafed????
Avatar f tn So my Dr told me to take Sudafed for this head cold. However, they were adamant that I make sure I get the kind we have to sign for and not the OTC one. I was wondering why because I know the one we sign for has the stuff that people use to make meth but the OTC stuff does not. So what is the difference?
Avatar m tn Then i decided to try amoxicillin and that also didnt work. I am behind my computer alot and the screen is pretty bright so ive reduced the brightness substantially and bought some eye drops. I started this yesterday and the pain is still there. Im only 29 and i am hoping its not something like glaucoma. Im just trying to fix it on my own cause i have no health insurance. I have decent vision. Never wore glasses or contacts. Any ideas? Thanks.
Avatar n tn t whether I should Just keep doing the Nasonex and nothing else and wait n see? or if I should take some Sudafed and see what that does. Im not usually a person that takes medicines a lot I usually just like to work out and exercise a lot and let my body take care of it. But I never had tinnitus for 2 months before haha...but I'm just wondering what would be the better alternative do you think?
Avatar m tn If I suspect Mono, and took a 3 day course of Amoxicillin (10 pills) and developed no rash, can I pretty much rule out mono? Some sources state 80-90% of those taking Amoxicillin with Mono develop the rash, while I've even seen 99% as a percentage. I actually want it to be Mono, instead of something worse, but I'm starting to fear the worst. Have any of you had Mono, been misdiagnosed with Strep and took Amoxicillin, and NOT get the rash?
Avatar f tn Well a few days ago I started having flu like symptoms so I look at the paper and it basically says Sudafed for colds and Tylenol for pain or fever, but no Ibuprofen. I start taking the Sudafed for a few days, doesn't really help.. Only for the body aches. Well last night I had a fever of 101.4 so I decided to go to the ER just to be safe. Turns out I don't have the flu, just a really bad viral infection. They ask me what I've been taking and I said Sudafed.
Avatar n tn Today, nine days after beginning to feel sick, I visited my doctor and was prescribed Amoxicillin 875mg tabs to be taken twice a day for the next ten days. My doctor believes I have a sinus infection, hence the Amoxicillin prescription. I did not mention my unsafe sexual encounter to my doctor and I am not having any outward symptoms of any kind of STD. My question is, can you tell me what if any STD the Amoxicillin would cure if I did contract one from my friend?
