Dayquil Pressure and Pain Caplet


Generic Name: ibuprofen and pseudoephedrine (EYE bue pro fen and SOO doe ee FED rin)

Brand Names: Advil Cold & Sinus, Advil Cold and Sinus Liqui-Gel, Children's Ibuprofen Cold Relief, Dristan Sinus, Motrin Childrens Cold


What is Dayquil Pressure and Pain Caplet (ibuprofen and pseudoephedrine)?

Ibuprofen is nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID) that reduces hormones that cause inflammation and pain in the body.


Pseudoephedrine is a decongestant that shrinks blood vessels in the nasal passages. Dilated blood vessels can cause nasal congestion (stuffy nose).


The combination of ibuprofen and pseudoephedrine is used to treat stuffy nose, sinus congestion, cough, and pain or fever caused by the common cold or flu.


Ibuprofen and pseudoephedrine may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.


What is the most important information I should know about Dayquil Pressure and Pain Caplet (ibuprofen and pseudoephedrine)?


Always ask a doctor before giving a cough or cold medicine to a child. Death can occur from the misuse of cough and cold medicines in very young children. Do not use ibuprofen and pseudoephedrine if you have used an MAO inhibitor such as furazolidone (Furoxone), isocarboxazid (Marplan), phenelzine (Nardil), rasagiline (Azilect), selegiline (Eldepryl, Emsam, Zelapar), or tranylcypromine (Parnate) within the past 14 days.

Ibuprofen may cause life-threatening heart or circulation problems such as heart attack or stroke, especially if you use it long term. Do not use this medication just before or after heart bypass surgery (coronary artery bypass graft, or CABG).


Get emergency medical help if you have chest pain, weakness, shortness of breath, slurred speech, or problems with vision or balance.

Ibuprofen may also cause serious effects on the stomach or intestines, including bleeding or perforation (forming of a hole). These conditions can be fatal and can occur without warning while you are taking ibuprofen, especially in older adults.


Call your doctor at once if you have symptoms of stomach bleeding such as black, bloody, or tarry stools, or coughing up blood or vomit that looks like coffee grounds. Do not take more of this medication than is recommended. An overdose of ibuprofen can cause damage to your stomach or intestines.

What should I discuss with my doctor before taking Dayquil Pressure and Pain Caplet (ibuprofen and pseudoephedrine)?


Do not use this medication just before or after heart bypass surgery (coronary artery bypass graft, or CABG).


Ibuprofen may cause life-threatening heart or circulation problems such as heart attack or stroke, especially if you use it long term.


Ibuprofen may also cause serious effects on the stomach or intestines, including bleeding or perforation (forming of a hole). These conditions can be fatal and can occur without warning while you are taking ibuprofen, especially in older adults.


Do not use ibuprofen and pseudoephedrine if you have used an MAO inhibitor such as furazolidone (Furoxone), isocarboxazid (Marplan), phenelzine (Nardil), rasagiline (Azilect), selegiline (Eldepryl, Emsam, Zelapar), or tranylcypromine (Parnate) in the last 14 days. A dangerous drug interaction could occur, leading to serious side effects. You should not use this medication if you are allergic to ibuprofen or pseudoephedrine, or if you have:

  • a stomach ulcer or active bleeding in your stomach or intestines;




  • polyps in your nose; or




  • a history of allergic reaction to aspirin or other NSAIDs.



Ask a doctor or pharmacist if it is safe for you to take this medicine if you have:



  • a history of stomach ulcers or bleeding;




  • heart disease, congestive heart failure, high blood pressure;




  • systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE);



  • liver or kidney disease;


  • a thyroid disorder;




  • diabetes;




  • enlarged prostate or problems with urination;




  • a bleeding or blood clotting disorder; or




  • if you smoke.




Taking ibuprofen during the last 3 months of pregnancy may result in birth defects and prolonged labor and delivery. Do not take this medication without medical advice if you are pregnant. It is not known whether ibuprofen and pseudoephedrine passes into breast milk or if it could harm a nursing baby. Do not use this medication without telling your doctor if you are breast-feeding a baby.

How should I take Dayquil Pressure and Pain Caplet (ibuprofen and pseudoephedrine)?


Use exactly as directed on the label, or as prescribed by your doctor. Do not use in larger or smaller amounts or for longer than recommended. Cold medicine is usually taken only for a short time until your symptoms clear up.


An overdose of ibuprofen can damage your stomach or intestines. Adults should not take more than 800 milligrams per dose or 3200 mg per day (4 maximum doses).


Do not give this medication to a child younger than 4 years old. Always ask a doctor before giving a cough or cold medicine to a child. Death can occur from the misuse of cough and cold medicines in very young children. Shake the oral suspension (liquid) well just before you measure a dose. Measure the liquid with a special dose-measuring spoon or medicine cup, not with a regular table spoon. If you do not have a dose-measuring device, ask your pharmacist for one. Call your doctor if you have a fever lasting longer than 3 days, if you have new symptoms, or if your condition does not improve after taking this medication for 7 days.

If you need surgery, tell the surgeon ahead of time that you are using ibuprofen and pseudoephedrine. You may need to stop using the medicine for a short time.


Store at room temperature away from moisture and heat.

What happens if I miss a dose?


Since cold medicine is usually taken only as needed, you may not be on a dosing schedule. If you are taking the medication regularly, take the missed dose as soon as you remember. Skip the missed dose if it is almost time for your next scheduled dose. Do not take extra medicine to make up the missed dose.


What happens if I overdose?


Seek emergency medical attention or call the Poison Help line at 1-800-222-1222.

Overdose symptoms may include nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, dizziness, feeling restless or nervous, blurred vision, sweating, breathing problems, or seizure (convulsions).


What should I avoid while taking Dayquil Pressure and Pain Caplet (ibuprofen and pseudoephedrine)?


Ask a doctor or pharmacist before using any other cough, cold, or pain medicine. Ibuprofen and pseudoephedrine are contained in many combination medicines. Taking certain products together can cause you to get too much of a certain drug. Check the label to see if a medicine contains ibuprofen or pseudoephedrine. Avoid drinking alcohol.

Demeclocycline


Pronunciation: DEM-e-kloe-SYE-kleen
Generic Name: Demeclocycline
Brand Name: Declomycin


Demeclocycline is used for:

Treating certain bacterial infections. It may be used in combination with other medicines to treat amoeba infections in the intestines. It may also be used for other conditions as determined by your doctor.


Demeclocycline is a tetracycline antibiotic. It works by interfering with the production of proteins needed by the bacteria to grow. Slowing the bacteria's growth allows the body's defense mechanisms (eg, white blood cells) to destroy the bacteria.


Do NOT use Demeclocycline if:


  • you are allergic to any ingredient in Demeclocycline or another tetracycline (eg, minocycline)

  • you are taking acitretin, isotretinoin, or a penicillin (eg, amoxicillin)

Contact your doctor or health care provider right away if any of these apply to you.



Before using Demeclocycline:


Some medical conditions may interact with Demeclocycline. Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you have any medical conditions, especially if any of the following apply to you:


  • if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or are breast-feeding

  • if you are taking any prescription or nonprescription medicine, herbal preparation, or dietary supplement

  • if you have allergies to medicines, foods, or other substances

  • if you have kidney or liver problems or diabetes

Some MEDICINES MAY INTERACT with Demeclocycline. Tell your health care provider if you are taking any other medicines, especially any of the following:


  • Acitretin, anticoagulants (eg, warfarin), digoxin, isotretinoin, methotrexate, or methoxyflurane because the risk of their side effects and toxic effects may be increased by Demeclocycline

  • Penicillins (eg, amoxicillin) or hormonal birth control (eg, birth control pills) because their effectiveness may be decreased by Demeclocycline

This may not be a complete list of all interactions that may occur. Ask your health care provider if Demeclocycline may interact with other medicines that you take. Check with your health care provider before you start, stop, or change the dose of any medicine.


How to use Demeclocycline:


Use Demeclocycline as directed by your doctor. Check the label on the medicine for exact dosing instructions.


  • Take Demeclocycline on an empty stomach at least 1 hour before or 2 hours after eating.

  • Do not take antacids containing aluminum, calcium, or magnesium; bismuth-containing products; iron; urinary alkalinizers (eg, sodium bicarbonate); zinc; or multivitamins with minerals within 2 hours before or 2 hours after taking Demeclocycline.

  • To clear up your infection completely, take Demeclocycline for the full course of treatment. Keep taking it even if you feel better in a few days.

  • Drink plenty of fluids with Demeclocycline to wash it down and avoid the risk of throat irritation.

  • To help prevent throat irritation, do not lie down immediately after taking Demeclocycline.

  • Do not use Demeclocycline if it is outdated or has been stored incorrectly.

  • If you miss a dose of Demeclocycline, take it as soon as possible. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular dosing schedule. Do not take 2 doses at once.

Ask your health care provider any questions you may have about how to use Demeclocycline.



Important safety information:


  • Demeclocycline may cause dizziness. This effect may be worse if you take it with alcohol or certain medicines. Use Demeclocycline with caution. Do not drive or perform other possibly unsafe tasks until you know how you react to it.

  • Be sure to use Demeclocycline for the full course of treatment. If you do not, the medicine may not clear up your infection completely. The bacteria could also become less sensitive to this or other medicines. This could make the infection harder to treat in the future.

  • Demeclocycline only works against bacteria; it does not treat viral infections (eg, the common cold).

  • Long-term or repeated use of Demeclocycline may cause a second infection. Tell your doctor if signs of a second infection occur. Your medicine may need to be changed to treat this.

  • Hormonal birth control (eg, birth control pills) may not work as well while you are using Demeclocycline. To prevent pregnancy, use an extra form of birth control (eg, condoms).

  • Mild diarrhea is common with antibiotic use. However, a more serious form of diarrhea, (pseudomembranous colitis) may rarely occur. This may develop while you use the antibiotic or within several months after you stop using it. Contact your doctor right away if stomach pain or cramps, severe diarrhea, or bloody stools occur. Do not treat diarrhea without first checking with your doctor.

  • Demeclocycline may cause you to become sunburned more easily. Avoid the sun, sunlamps, or tanning booths until you know how you react to Demeclocycline. Use a sunscreen or wear protective clothing if you must be outside for more than a short time.

  • Do not use Demeclocycline for longer than prescribed without checking with your doctor.

  • Demeclocycline may interfere with certain lab test results. Be sure your doctor and laboratory personnel know you are using Demeclocycline.

  • Diabetes patients - Demeclocycline may affect your blood sugar. Check blood sugar levels closely. Ask your doctor before you change the dose of your diabetes medicine.

  • Lab tests, including liver function, kidney function, and complete blood cell counts, may be performed while you use Demeclocycline. These tests may be used to monitor your condition or check for side effects. Be sure to keep all doctor and lab appointments.

  • Use Demeclocycline with extreme caution in CHILDREN younger than 10 years old who have diarrhea or an infection of the stomach or bowel.

  • Demeclocycline is not recommended for use in CHILDREN younger than 8 years of age because permanent tooth discoloration (yellow-gray-brown) may occur.

  • PREGNANCY and BREAST-FEEDING: Demeclocycline has been shown to cause harm to the fetus. If you think you may be pregnant, contact your doctor.
