I have never in my life used NyQuil or Alkazelter, so I can't answer for those, but you are not supposed to take ibuprofen while pregnant. Since you were/are so early it should be just fine. With my daughter I took it a few times before I found out and she is a happy healthy almost 4 year old. Just make sure not to take anymore. You can however use Tylenol.
My sister gave my 5 month old Nyquil because she wouldn't stop crying! I am beyond pissed! I asked her why she was sleeping so much and she said because she kept her up but she threw up a little red stuff and then she admitted. I've been giving her water every chance she'll take it but she's been asleep for about 2 hrs. She's breathing and everything but are their any serious side affects to it?
I really dislike getting sick on the weekend because I can't call the DR. Can I safely take nyquil? There is liver warning on back but that's also on tylenol. Hoping to get some help with sleeping and fight this cold. Liver stage 1-2 and not yet on triple treatment. I haven't taken any meds at all today, if that matters. Thanks everyone!
Have you tried I think it was mucinex?
Whole grain cereal
Fruit and yogurt
Whole grain toast with peanut butter, fruit
Hard boiled egg
As long as you stay with complex carbs, which are those in whole grains, veggies, fruits, such as apples pears, etc.you should be okay. The complex carbs are the ones that provide fiber to keep you feeling fuller longer.
Also be sure to get plenty of protein with every meal. Eggs and whole grains are excellent sources of protein, as is dairy.
Carbs raise BG so restricting carbs will help BG.
when you say 6 units I assume you mean 6 exchanges which is 90 gr of carbs. If you take 250 mg at each meal that is 750 mg a day, the limit is 2400mg a day so you have room to go up on the Met.
It can take 6 to 8 weeks for met to become fully effective.
Hey there! I don't think you need to limit yourself to a certain amount of carbs per day. I would recommend trying a high protein and high fiber diet. Also try meal planning. Having a plan will ensure that you aren't going overboard on carbs, and knowing how many carbs you'll have for each meal will help you plan your bolus more correctly.
s more dangerous to drink 1 beer every night than it is if you take two Nyquil every night lol....there is less alcohol in two nyquil caps than there is in 1 beer....so your not at all in danger...I would however try the transition from Nyquil to Melatonin like nauty sait....it is safe to take up to 10 mg. of Melatonin every night....and if you have a sleeping problem, 10 mg. of melatonin will knock you right out....good luck Peace and love!
the drug that helps you fall alseep and stay asleep in nyquil is doxxylamine succinate-which is a sedating anti-histamine. 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.
I found 7 empty bottles of Vicks NyQuil and another half empty bottle in my son's room. I am trying to research this substance abuse and would like any information you can direct me to.
I've been sober for 16 years and stay clear of the stuff. You can usually use benedryl and childrens robitussin type products. It is a much safer bet. I don't fool around with meds. Also I always tell someone what I am taking. I once had to take Valium for a week for TMJ under a doctors supervision (we tried all other means first). Just be careful with meds.
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.
What started out as an innocent use of cough medicine prescribed by physician, got additive mode started. I had started to use Nyquil to sleep and to make long story short, I have used a bottle (sometimes 2) daily for 3 years. 1 week off here and there when on vacation. Wanting to stop, not knowing what withdrawl will bring. Never had difficulty with alcohol, but off nyquil for 2 days, hot sweats, severe headache, irritation. Can anyone elaborate on their experience or similar? Thanks!
I don't think that's a good idea. I'm pretty sure Nyquil has alcohol in it and that's most definitely not good for you to be having at all..
