A member asked:
I took equaline allergy relief pill 2 hrs ago. think i'm getting a cold so i want to take cvs multi-sympton night time sinus relief. can i take both?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Likely OK: However since both preparations contain antihistamines and i presume that the cvs product contains a decongestant as well, you may end up a little more drowsy or excited by taking both within 4 hrs . The stimulant effects may trigger an anxiety attack. If nasal congestion is the primary concern, afrin nasal spray 2x daily for up to 5 days may be better tolerated.
