A member asked:
Can i take two teaspoons of phenergan (promethazine) dm syrup. i have bad asthma and it's been a rough few days. one teaspoon just doesn't give enough relief. ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes...BUT: You could take up to 1 tbsp for cough relief, but the treatment for asthma is NOT phenergan (promethazine) DM. Should be using albuterol and inhaled steroids and potentially other meds as prescribed.
