Cherratussin

can I take cherratussin while I am on lamictal ## I have been on Lamictal for several years and have been prescribed and taken it several times during that period. I have also taken vicodin and percocet for pain when needed. If you're taking lamictal for BPD (as I am) the danger is not physical. If you tend to the more manic side you should be careful with any medication that has a possible side effect of euphoria. ## I was prescribed cherratussin, what is in it and is there a narcotic in this medicine?

I went to hospital they gave me a prescription for cherratussin ac syrup and Ventolin inhaler plus gave me a steroid shot for bronchitis. Took cough syrup 2 hours ago still coughing so hard I am vomiting. Can I take phenergan? ## I have a full bottle of Cheratussin AC Syrup that expired Feb 13,2014. Can I still use it? I've read up to one year. ## Sheila the medical field will warn you not to take any expired meds BUT most meds retain their effectiveness for several years. ## @Christy (original poster), Sorry to hear about the vomiting. I know that must be rough on you. As far as drug interactions are concerned, research from umm.edu does not list any interactions between Phenergan + Cheratussin AC + Ventolin (Albuterol). In that respect I don't see why you wouldn't be able ...

I was prescribed cherratussin ac, it has an awful taste that makes a little nauseous, is there something as strong that I can ask mythe doctor for? ## Hello, John! How are you? Your doctor doesn't prescribe the medication from any particular manufacturer, that depends on which one your pharmacy has in stock. There are some products available that contain Hydrocodone, rather than Codeine, so your doctor may be able to prescribe one of them, if you inform them of your problem. Is there anything else I can help with?

Has anybody taken Cheratussin AC and Clonazepam who can tell me if the two medications worked together without interaction? Thanks. ## No, they do not, you may experience more side effects than usual, according to FDA interaction reports, which may include nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, and sedation. Are you on any other medications? What are the prescribed dosages? ## I take Atenolol 50mg, a diuretic 25mg and an inhaler. I'm also a smoker. ## You can take both just fine. Its an opiate and a benzo, take it slow and get nice & faded. Source: im prescribed clonazapem and have had some of my cherratussin syrup
