A member asked:
Can i take mucinex (guaifenesin) dm for chest congestion and ibuprofen for body aches at the same time?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Not a problem: That is a reasonable combination of medications for your symptoms. Mucinex (guaifenesin) dm has a cough suppressant and a mucus thinner. The Ibuprofen does not overlap with either ingredient.
