If : If you are getting worse or are not seeing any improvement after 3-4 days, then you should see your doctor to make sure it's not something more concerning than a viral cold or flu. Good luck!

Question 5

i took advil migraine & mucinex (guaifenesin) 4 hours ago, can i take an aleve sinus now?

Accepted Answer

Mgt: I would suggest waiting another two hours before taking Aleve, since the side effects of both drugs is similar.
If you experience prolonged cough, fever or respiratory distress, please see your PCP right away.
Saline rinses may decrease post nasal drip and cough.

Yes: Per Drugs.Com Drug interaction checker;  "No results found - however, this does not necessarily mean no interactions exist. ALWAYS consult with your doctor or pharmacist."

Question 7

Accepted Answer

Robitusin: Yes, that combination should be ok to take at the same time.

Question 8

can i take mucinex (guaifenesin) dm with advil cold/sinus?

Accepted Answer

YES: An excellent combination and very effective.

Question 9

can i take advil cold and sinus with mucinex (guaifenesin) dm?

Accepted Answer

I would : Not take the 2 together.   Symptomatic treatment is best.  Try steam, humidifier, sinus rinse.   See your dr if not improving.

Question 10

can i take aleve the following morning after taking advil migraine at 745pm the night before? is it also ok to take mucinex (guaifenesin) multi cold?

Accepted Answer

Alternate medication: Taking Advil at night and then Aleve the next morning should not be a problem. You definitely never want to take at the same time two different anti-inflammatories such as Advil and Aleve thinking that will give you more pain relief. Taken at the same time, you will not see increased relief of pain but have risk of irritation/ulceration of your stomach. Ok to take Mucinex (guaifenesin) multi-cold at same time.
