I want to know if the combination of acebrophylline and guaifenesin have a synergistic effect in the treatment of a productive cough? ## It is possible, and you should take them if a medical provider has instructed you to do so. But overall, it really depends on what is causing the cough. The NIH lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, and dry mouth. Have they helped you, at all? What is causing your cough?

Do you sell, or recommend pharmacies that sell, this medication? Does the SA have anything to do with sustained release? I am looking for a non-dye-non-additive medication that is only guai as medication and has as few as possible inert and stabilizer additives, but one that takes 12 hours to be depleted in bloodstream. ## This site is an information only website, they don't sell, nor prescribe/recommend any medications, they are also not affiliated with any pharmacies. In this case the SA stands for sustained action, which is the same as sustained release, or time released. As to finding one that lasts that long and has as few other ingredients as possible, have you tried asking your local pharmacist? They may be able to help you find one that meets your needs.

Does anyone know of cough syrup with codeine and guaifenesin (like Cheratussin ac) that is either dye-free or does not have red dye #40? My father has an allergy to red dye #40... Thanks! ## What I'd suggest doing is going to a compounding pharmacy. They are specially prepared to handle such problems and mix up the needed medications in the dosages ordered, or without certain ingredients that someone may be allergic to. They may require confirmation of the allergy from his doctor and it is usually more expensive, but would be well worth it to avoid an allergic reaction. Learn more Guaifenesin details here and you can learn more Codeine details here. Since this does contain Codeine, it has the potential to be habit forming and it may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, dry...
