If you honestly think you could be pregnant, don't take it if the box says not to. Call your doctor and see what they say. It may be OK to take or they may tell you another type to take in case you are pregnant. If you're pregnant, it's worth the calling around.
I had a cold 13 weeks into my first pregnancy, and the only thing my doctor would allow me to take was Tylenol cold medicine, and that was only because I was past 12 weeks. I would not recommend taking anything until you are sure you are pregnant. Drink extra fluids and try a vaporizer.

∙ 16y agoAlthough it is a smaller amount than an adult dose, I would not recommend it unless you are very ill and have cleared it with your doctor. Pseudoephedrine (or phenylephrine depending on your formulation) has not been well studied in pregnancy. There is some evidence of teratogenic effects in animal studies, but this has not been reported in humans as of yet. Theoretically, if it is able to cross the placenta, it could raise the fetus' heart rate temporarily.
ibuprofen, although considered a pregnancy category risk B in early pregnancy, becomes a category D during the 3rd trimester because it can cause persistant pulmonary hypertension in the newborn and prolongue pregnancy by preventing labor.
If you are feverish and achy with rhinitis, you can have acetaminophen (Tylenol). Depending on your stage of pregnancy, you may be able to take regular Claritin or Benadryl (ie NOT Claritin-D or Benadryl-D). This is not necessarily appropriate for everyone, so please consult your doctor before taking it. For nasal congestion, saline nasal sprays are safe to use as well as the Neti Pot (as made famous by Oprah - ask your pharmacist for assistance!)

Can you combine advil cold and sinus and mucinex-d?
Yes, you can take Advil Cold and Sinus and Mucinex together. However, make sure you're just taking regular Mucinex and not Mucinex DM with Advil. Mucinex DM can cause bad interactions if taken with other cold medications.

Your dog will be fine, but make sure they do not hurt themselves (if the pill is meant to make humans go to sleep it might be disorienting to dogs).

My husband and I do use these products together, but I would suggest you check with your local pharmacist , depending on the use of other prescribed meds you may take or conditions you may have. Feel better...

In health, be sure you are talking about the correct "sinus" The heart has a sinus, so please be specific about which sinus you are referring to.

You are taking amoxicillin and you are pregnant can you take ibruofen too?
I am not a dr., but I remember clearly that ibuprofen/motrin/advil was a no-no during pregnancy. Pretty sure acetaminophen/tylenol is ok. Check with your dr. or pharmacist.
Can you take advil PM and advil cold and sinus?
Short answer: yes, they can safely be combined in full, normal doses. Advil Cold and Sinus is ibuprofen (NSAID analgesic) with pseudoephedrine/phenylephrine (nasal decongestant; the active ingredient in Sudafed), and Tylenol PM is acetaminophen (analgesic) with diphenhydramine (sleep aid; the active ingredient in Benadryl). Combining ibuprofen and acetaminophen is a little redundant, but perfectly safe. Both also have no significant reaction with either diphenhydramine or pseudoephedrine. Some people do report different reactions to both diphenhydramine and pseudoephedrine: some people are sedated by both, and some report excitability. Be sure to note your personal reactions for future reference. Note that you'd probably save some money and take fewer unneccesary drugs by purchasing generic versions of each drug separately -- ibuprofen, acetaminophen, diphenhydramine, and pseudoephedrine. The first two are for pain (you can opt for the one you prefer), the third is for insomnia, and the fourth is for nasal congestion. That way, you can take only what you need.
Is Advil made from a plant?
yes! it is! but I'm not sure what plant though...
Can you take Advil with Nitriix Oxide?
Yes you can. But be sure to read the Advil label as different strengths say different things. Advil extra strength may want you to change the dose you take if you are taking it with Nitrix Oxide.
Can you take Advil Sinus with Clarinex?
Yes. As long as you are not taking any medicines which are contraindicated with either. That is just a big word meaning you are not taking any meds that you cannot take with either advil or claritin. If you are having allergies and stufiness, advil is probably a good idea. It will help to decrease inflammation and sinus pain. When in doubt, call your doctor or a pharmacist. I have found pharmacists to be a great resource. Hope this helps!
