I got prescriptions from the hospital, Tessalon Perles for the cough and Prednisone for the clogged airways. Of course, I can't pick them until tomorrow when the pharmacy opens. Sleep until then? Fingers crossed, though I'm on day three or four (honestly don't remember) without a consistent eight hours.
Thank goodness it's my weekend!!   |
delsom is a good cough syrup, flonase nasal inhalant for allergies which are heavy right now with spring. try zyrtek in the morning , i walked into a nurse practitioner run clinic and he told me that my coughing was from post nasal drip from allergies.you need to take benadryl at night to decongesant you and help dry up the drip sure enough after I did all of those things my coughing went away. this may not what you wanted to hear. I wish you luck and good health.
