A member asked:

Is mucomyst ok with atrovent (ipratropium)?

Dr. Sanford Archer answered

Specializes in ENT and Head and Neck Surgery

Maybe: Mucomyst is an inhalational agent that serves to help break up mucous. Atrovent is an oral or nasal spray that serves to dry up secretions. It should not be combined for pulmonary use, but is helpful to reduce nasal secretions that may worsen pulmonary problems.
