Does anyone out there have a problem with this drug and teenagers popping these to feel high? My son almost killed himself on June 2nd, 2007. He took a whole box of these and drove a vehicle. They put a limit on sudafed, why not these pills? ## These pills contain DXM which is highly abusable by teenagers. However, coricidin contains other active ingredients which are lethal in high doses however DXM is not very much so. I used to be addicted to these activities. I would take a whole bottle of robitussin cough gels and have a great night. It is called robo-tripping and has similar effects to ketamine and magic mushrooms. Sudafed however does not contain DXM, and many people aren't going to disregard the warnings on pill bottles.

Round red biconvex pill imprinted "schering" and also has an unreadable 3 digit number. ## Topic should read "unreadible 3 digit number" ...something like 552 or 532 ... shaped like an M & M. ## Unreadable 3 digit imprinted number ## Coricidin actually uses a C logo, then additional C's to designate the cough and cold preparations, an added + for others and etc. I haven't found any where they use Schering on them. Learn more OTC details here. Where did you find them? Is there a chance they are older tablets?

my boyfriend bought coricidin hbp by mistake and really needs a decongestant. is it ok to give him mucinex with the coricidin hbp? ## Based on my research there are no drug interactions found between Coricidin HBP and Mucinex. This does not necessarily mean no interactions exist, but my sources state that every effort has been made to ensure that the information provided is accurate. With that said, (because I am not a doctor) the most I can tell you is that from what I've read, these two medications are regarded as being safe to take together and shouldn't present any problems outside of the normal side effects associated with each medication. I hope this info helps to answer your question!

I had a bad cold i drank coricidin hbp cough &cold and i drsnk my tramadol hcl only 50 mg when i git up from bed i had hive all around my body and it itches can i drink benedril for the itching? ## Benadryl is an antihistamine, so I think it should help relieve much of those symptoms. It sounds like you may have had an allergic reaction to the tramadol or coricidin in order to experience itching and hives like that. Were you ever able to to determine which of those medications might've caused the allergy?

Has anyone experienced, long term side effects from Coricidin. ## Hello, David! How are you? Coricidin is an over the counter product that's used to treat cold symptoms, so no one should be taking so much of it or taking it so often that they need to worry about long-term side effects. If you are suffering that frequently from cold symptoms, then you most likely do not have a cold and should see your doctor. Which Coricidin formulation did you take?

Does any know why I would be refused purchase of Coricidin D by scanning my drivers license? I have no history of drug abuse or anything like that. I have allergies that drive me bannanas some times and have used Lotramine succesfully. ## How much were you trying to purchase and how old are you? This medication is commonly abused, however, unless you've been flagged for some type of suspicious behavior, I have no idea why the purchase would be refused. ## 63 yrs old . We figure it may have been because I was purchasing Nite time cold medicine at the same time . Still have not figured what my license had to do with it. ## It may be that in your home county there are restrictions on that medication, or perhaps in your home state. You neglected to say whether you were in your home stat...

I FOUND A PILL A GEL CAP WITH THE C-HBP IN MY KID ROOM WHAT IS IT ## It is probably Coricidin cold&flu. It's a red gelcap which comes in lots of shapes and is ok for people with High Blood Pressure (HBP). For verification, you can click here to view a photo of the 'Coricidin HBP' package.

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

This was found at a middle school and we are trying to identify it. It is a hard red plastic with the letters c-day on it solid red and when cut open it had a liquid in it that smelled like a medicine ie cough ## Hello, Susan! How are you? This is called C-Day, it's Coricidin high blood pressure multi-symptom cold for daytime use, it contains 10mgs of Dextromethorphan and 200mgs of Guaifenesin. It is available over the counter and is used to treat cold symptoms. Is there anything else I can help with?

red pill has a f stamped on it and the othere side may have an e or just another f ## Unfortunately I couldn't find an exact match to your description. The closest match being a round red pill with the imprint "C F" on one of the sides and blank on the other. This pill is identified as Coricidin HBP Cold & Flu (Acetaminophen 325mg + Chlorpheniramine 2mg). If this does not match your pill, is there any possibility that the marking has simply been misread? Please post back if you have any other comments or information to add and hopefully we can figure out what it is.

I found this round red pill in my son's pocket. It has the letters C C with an arrow in between the C's, pointing to the first C. There is also some design above the letters, but I cannot make it out. Help? ## It sounds as though your son has cough medicine in his pocket. I'm not for certain but it may be Coricidine Cough & Cold. Like I said I'm not for certain... Kids take large amounts of the cough meds, like 8 to 14 at a time, to get a high feeling.

Can MucinexDM and Lisinopril be taken together? ## Hello, Patsy! How are you? I didn't find any problems or interactions listed between the two, however, you should check with your doctor, before you take the Mucinex DM. Some decongestants can elevated your blood pressure and raise heart rate, so it may not be safe for you to take it. Coricidin has a line of products you may want to look for instead, they are labeled HBP, so you know they are safe to take, if you have high blood pressure. Lisinopril is classified by the FDA as an ACE inhibitor and its typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache, increase urination and hypotension. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Muscinex DM contains guiafenesin (you should know its original name; I barely could p...
