ROBITUSSIN DM Dextromethorphan / Guiafenesin 15mg / 100mg Syrup 60mL

Indications / Uses

ROBITUSSIN DM is used for the temporary relief of cough and chest congestion. Dextromethorphan in ROBITUSSIN DM helps to suppress the cough reflex, while guaifenesin helps to loosen mucus and phlegm in the chest, making it easier to cough up. This can help to relieve symptoms such as a dry, hacking cough and difficulty breathing. 

Side-effects

ROBITUSSIN DM common side effects include drowsiness, dizziness, nausea, and vomiting. In some cases, it may also cause headache, constipation, or difficulty urinating. These side effects are usually mild and go away on their own. 

Dosage / Direction

The usual dose for adults and children 12 years of age and older is as directed on the product label. It's important to follow the dosage instructions carefully and not exceed the recommended daily limit.

Contraindications

ROBITUSSIN DM should not be used by individuals with known hypersensitivity to dextromethorphan, guaifenesin, or any other ingredient in the product. This means that if you have had an allergic reaction to any of these ingredients in the past, you should avoid using this medication. 

Special Precautions

ROBITUSSIN DM should be used with caution in patients with liver or kidney disease. This is because these organs are responsible for processing and removing medications from the body.

Is it safe to take it with other drugs?

ROBITUSSIN DM may interact with other medications, including sedatives, tranquilizers, and alcohol. These interactions can increase the risk of side effects or decrease the effectiveness of the medication. 

How should I store it?
