Can you mix cold and severe flu and severe congestion medicines?

Answer:

You should never mix any medications together, there may be ingredients that are the same in both which could result in your getting too much of one of them. Or there could be ingredients that work against each other or combine to make something else that would either be harmful on its own or in combination with other ingredients. You can consult your pharmacist and ask her if there is an over the counter medicine that can treat or help with what you are trying to do by combining other medicines together.
