Is mixing Hydrocodone syrups safe?

Question

This past week i got prescribed Tussionex for my bad cough and sickness I've been dealing with.

Generic Name: chlorpheniramine and hydrocodone (KLOR fen IR a meen and HYE droe KOE done)

and from last time i was sick i got prescribed Vanacon EXP...

Chemical Name: PSEUDOEPHEDRINE (soo-doe-e-FED-rin), HYDROCODONE (hye-droe-KOE-done), and GUAIFENESIN (gwye-FEN-e-sin)

i was wondering if these are safe to mix, because i am running low on the Tussionex...

Answer 1

You need to consult Kaiser website. It has an extensive library which can search the two drugs for you and tell you if its ok.  Almost 85% of the time regular dosage of two drugs wont kill you just make you feel sick. Then you'll know. But more than two is very dangerous.

Answer 2

I would not do it....the reaction you have to the mixture could be bad, it it turns out to be bad at all.

Go get your presctiption refilled or ask the doctor for an OTC alternative if you cannot get a refill.

Answer 3

Call Walgreens on this one. I would say yes but what if you do it and go into a coma?

Answer 4

I would not advise ever mixing medications as this could change the entire composition of the ingredients causing serious reactions or worse.  Check with your Pharmacist first- he or she is going to be a reliable source to ask.

Answer 5

Not a good idea to mix and drugs, they suppress the symptoms as the body is often detoxing or going though a healing cycle.

IF your hands are cold then look around you to see what type of stress or grief you are going through in your life.  IF your hands are warm you are going through a healing cycle and you need to support the healing and take lots of fluids and vit C to help detox faster.
