help...
I have a cold...sneezing, sinus, etc...no fever or anything...just a cold..not allergies...
I need a cold med but don't know what to take.
I am on Emsam patch.. half of the 9 mg patch.
Pharmacist have basically told me I can't take any cold med.
I found "coricidin" cold/flu for people with High blood pressure. It doesn't say anything about MAOI interaction. However it does have chlorpheniramine antihistamine. I checked with my psych and she said no antihistamine. she suggested that I can have ingredient guaifenesin which is in robitussin...however when I look at robitussin cold/cough it has guifenesin but says do not use with maoi...
i can't think anymore with my cold...help...someone who has succesfully taken a cold med, can you please give me name, ingredients etc....what to stay away from...
btw I'm in the USA...so if you know of meds avail here...help.
