Avatar n tn 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. How much is too much Guaifenesin?
Avatar f tn He asked me to stay off of it for the duration of my pg. Not that the info you get is wrong ;but you never know the source of some of what you read and it can cause major confusion and so unless they have a license to be a dr I'm sticking with the man in a white jacket with md following his name...LOL. Although it doesn't always mean they are right either. I think it depends on the situation. You can find alot of useful info. I could go on all day you catch my drift!
Avatar f tn Hi, I just read your query about the guaifenesin protocol. I did extensive research on this protocol and have read both the original and revised versions to the book. I did do the protocol for 2 months but had to stop so my doctors could R/O other conditions since my ANA was found to be +. During Tx though I did recruit and teach my PT to map me so I had some documented solid proof as to if this protocol was true to its nature to discern for myself whether or not what Dr. St.
1580703 tn?1651904887 A common expectorant suggested for asthmatics is guaifenesin 400 mg. For this to be effective the patient must drink lots of fluids and remain well hydrated. Any diuretic interfere with this recommendation.

Avatar f tn Hi Everyone, Somewhere along the line I think I came across an article suggesting the some types of cough mixtures are also good for improving cervical mucus production. Am I mis-remembering this? My CM got very scarce towards the end of my 6mths of clomid. I am not sure why and am wondering if there is any way to reverse this. I would love to know if the cough mixture story in my head has any basis in fact. I had always thought that cough mixtures were to dry up mucus and stop runny noses!
1777912 tn?1314474892 iv been doing alot of looking on the internet about this sort of thing. there is a cough syrup called Robitussin (guaifenesin cough syrup) i know it sounds stupid because it is cough syrup, but as it has guaifenesin in it, it clears not only the mucas on your chest but also makes your cervical mucas thinner and runnier so the seman can swim through better. look it up on google. but make sure you get the one with guaifenesin in it as the other ones can dry up the cervical mucas .
Avatar n tn Antibiotics for infections and bronchodilators for bronchospasm. And of course avoidance of smoking to prevent further damage to the lungs. If the inhalers are inadequate consult your doctor for alternate ones. Talk to your GP regarding this in the meantime you could try warm salt water gargles, steam inhalations and breathing exercises. Hope this helped and do keep us posted.
Avatar f tn 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!
377493 tn?1356502149 Hi Amanda, My dr is one of the ones that is part of a study about low dose baby aspirin and preventing recurrent mc's. He says you need to take it all the time until you are 32 wks, as by the time you realize and get your bfp it may already be too late (there may already be minute blood clots formed in the placenta which won't go away and may ultimately lead to mc); only stopping at the 32 wks because of a slightly higher risk for uncontrolled bleeding during labor.
Avatar n tn yes, well sort of. It's Guaifenesin an ingredient found in cough meds. 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.

Avatar n tn I nursed my last bottle thru 2 cold seasons finally cutting open the plastic bottle, and literally licking the sides of it clean. The stuff is amazing, and for some reason, this type of antihistamine doesn't bother me like others do.

Avatar f tn Can Mucinex (Guaifenesin) cause gastritis or irritate existing gastritis/ulcer? I was taking Mucinex for 5 days, 400mg once a day, and now my stomach is bothering me (burning pain). I have suffered from gastritis and a gastric ulcer in the past. Could this medication cause or aggravate those problems? It was actually helping my sinuses to drain, but now I'm afraid to take it.
