i would definatly ask your doctor. i think it would be a very bad idea to take it with out talking to your doctor. Paracetamol. Yes. Codeine. Well it's not advised at all. It'd be best to change the co-codamol to paracetamol... or Tylenol if your a yank.

This drug is horrible for a baby. This drug will cause growth problems in the future. Never take drugs when you are pregnant.

Actually, some drugs are ok to take according to doctors, but the fewer drugs you take, including over the counter ones and herbal remedies, the better for your baby. You'll need to call your doctor to find out if it's safe to take it-you don't want to risk your baby. Even if dr. says it's ok, you want to use it as sparingly as possible-doctors don't know everything. A few months of suffering is going to be so worth it when you see your new baby. Take Care.

Tylenol is allowed, anything else you have to ask your doctor about. And you should get that tooth fixed since you can't take strong painkillers and leaving it will make it worse. It can also cause a infection.

Yes, you are allowed. My midwife advised me that it was ok to take 2 paracetamols as I was suffering with bad headaches during my first trimester. I was advised to take 2 then 4 hours later to take 2 again. You can do this but do not exceed the daily amount it states on the box. If you consider taking any other medicines consult your doctor or midwife first but general paracetamol is fine.

Can you take Solpadeine with Concerta?

Codeine is OK to take while on concerta, however, be careful with a codeine cough syrup. Some codeine cough syrup also contains Pseudophedrine Hydrochloride, a decongestant. Pseudophedrine Hydrochloride will react with concerta and cause nervousness, shakiness, increased heart rate, and anxiety. The reason being is that concerta is a Central Nervous System (CNS) stimulant and so is Pseudophedrine Hydrochloride, causing a "double whammy" to your CNS. It depends from person to person on if the codeine will cause drowsiness or wakeuflness.

Can you take Dimetapp cough syrup while on Prozac 20 mg?

Cough syrup has a drug in it called DXM (or DM). If you were to drink a bottle of cough syrup you would feel as though you were drunk and you would hallucinate. When Prozac is combined with any other kind of drug it amplifies the drugs effect. I believe that on the cough syrup bottles it says not to use it if you are on anti-depressants unless you consult a doctor before hand.
