Can you take afrin and mucinex (guaifenesin) together?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Afrin (oxymetazoline) decongestant for relief of nasal congestion due to common cold/hay fever/allergies.Also shrinks swollen nasal passages so you can breathe easier. Do not use for >3 days( to avoid worsen congestion). Mucinex (guaifenesin) reliefs chest congestion helps to loosen phlegm(mucous).Take with lots of water. If symptoms persist /not better in ~ 7 days see a doctor. Take care.
