Can Zyrtec And Mucinex Be Taken Together?
Brief Answer:
It is ok to take both at the same time.
Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome,
It is perfectly fine to take both Zyrtec and Mucinex at the same time. I have taken these two medications together myself.
Be sure to drink plenty of water because the Mucinex needs this to help thin the secretions. Zyrtec can be a bit drying so all the more reason to drink water with this combo.
I hope this information helps. Please let me know if I can provide further information or clarification.
In the future, if you ask a question and want it routed to me, just put my name at the beginning of your question (or Dr. Bonnie).
Best regards,
Bonnie Berger-Durnbaugh, MD
