default
Posted on Wed, 15 Apr 2015
Question: I just took a dose of Cheritussin AC and it's made me anxious and jumpy. Not what I expected from a codeine product.

Does my diagnosed MVP with severe regurgitation make this med unsuitable for me?

Brief Answer:
Usually no relationship with MVP with severe regurgitation

Detailed Answer:
Dear Sir,

Actually such medications normally don't have adverse effects on mitral valve prolapse with severe regurgitation.
It's cardiovascular side effects are rare and include hypotension and palpitations.
It has nervous system side effects more frequent than cardiovascular side effects.
Anyway the medication should be stopped if it made you anxious and jumpy.

Hope I could help you

Wishing you good health
