I was told it was a de-congestant but want to9 make sure as I can't find any info on it. ## Yes it's a decongestant 600 mg Guaifenesin + 120 mg Pseudoephedrine ## Thanks....

round blue -white blue on top white on bottom ## What is the formal name of drug L126? ## This is not 100% definite since I am seeing different possibilities here, but let me know if any of the following sound familiar: Coricidin 325 mg Acetaminophen + 2 mg Chlorpheniramine Or it could also be Sudafed Cold & Cough. Bottom line is this is most likely an Over The Counter cold/cough med. Pete

I think your doctor or any really qualified pharmacist should know as well.
