Is Mucinex Safe To Be Taken While Having High BP?
Although this cough medicine (MUCINEX Fast Max Severe Congestion & Cough) does not show DM in the name, it shows dextromethorphan as an ingredient. The Dr. said get the Mucinex cough medicine, but not any with initials after the name. This is to avoid products that could affect high blood pressure. Is the cough medicine I bought going to be dangerous to use then? I had no idea there was a charge to ask and get an answer...dumb me. No thanks.
