HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

The maximum strength mucus relief contains acetaminphen, dextromethorphan (cough suppressant), guaifenesin (mucolytic), phenylephrine( decongestant).

This may help better with your congestion compared to only using the benadryl though since this mixture does not contain an anti histamine, the benadryl can used along with it.

There is no interaction with the meloxicam.

I hope this helps
