Suggest Medication For Cough
I went to see my nurse practicioner this morning because of sinus drainage and a cough. I received a shot of celestone and am taking a z pack. I left and forgot to ask for some cough medicine so I could sleep better at night. I have come across some prescription cough medicines in our medicine cabinet. They are dated 07 & 12. Are they safe to use or should I just call the office tomorrow morning for a new prescription?

HI
Well come to HCM
If this is allergic cough then no need to treat this cough because most the cough of allergic origin comes around even without the medicine, if this is not associated with other symptoms like fever, loss of weight and fatigue, take care.
