Acetaminophen 325mg/ Dextromethorphan Hbr 10mg/ Phenylephrine Hcl 5mg: Uses, Side Effects, and Drug Interactions

Brand names: Daytime Cold and Flu

# Acetaminophen/Dextromethorphan/Phenylephrine Overview This medicine is a combination of three ingredients that work together to help you feel better when you have a cold or the flu. Acetaminophen helps reduce fever and relieve aches and pains. Dextromethorphan is a cough suppressant that helps stop coughing. Phenylephrine helps clear your nasal passages so you can breathe easier. This combination medication treats multiple cold symptoms at the same time, making it easier than taking several different medicines. Before taking this medicine, there are some important safety rules to follow. Do not take it if you are allergic to any of the ingredients, and avoid taking other medicines that contain acetaminophen at the same time, as this could be dangerous. Be careful if you have a high fever, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or have certain health conditions—talk to your doctor first. Always follow the dosage instructions carefully, do not exceed the recommended dose, and stop taking the medicine if your symptoms do not improve or if you experience any unusual reactions. Keep this medicine away from children and store it safely, and contact a doctor if you have any questions or concerns.
