So yesterday I mentioned that I finally went to the walk-in, they diagnosed me with a sinus infection, and gave me ammoxicilian, flonase, mucinex d, and advil. The sinus congestion has definitely been relieved. Now I'm coughing up a storm, and couldn't sleep last night because of it. My question is should I just start taking an over the counter cough medicine? I'm so nervous b/c I'm already taking so many other meds. And to make matters worse, I've developed cold sores in my throat, so swallowing is a BEE-YOTCH!
Thanks ladies. I'm sorry to sound so whiny. Thank God JJ was looking & feeling good enough to go to day care today. I'm sitting on the couch for the day!
Re: WWYD? Meds related
Is the mucinex labeled as an expectorant? If so, it's already part of what cough syrup is, so you won't want to take more expectorant on top of it.
But, you may be able to switch to regular cough syrup - the pharmacist would be the one to ask.
