Pages: 1 Congestion medicine questions again...       #362914 - 01/14/11 11:40 AM Edit Reply Quote lelac36 Reged: 09/29/10 Posts: 11 Loc: Boston, MA Is there anything safe to take for more than 3 days to help with heavy duty congestion? I had the misfortune of coming down with some virus/flu just two short weeks after a fairly mild cold. The good news is that the D has not kicked in this time...but I am staying away from medicines other than motrin and tylenol which i don't need anymore. I REALLY need a decongestant. I have the zicam that was recommended but once i start i know i can only use it 3 days per instructions. I will save that for returning to work next week. ANy suggestions for the weekend? Something that won't trigger IBS issues? -------------------- IBS-D, Post-Infectious since 8/2010 Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator     Re: Congestion medicine questions again...       #362917 - 01/14/11 12:31 PM Edit Reply Quote Syl Reged: 03/13/05 Posts: 5499 Loc: SK, CANADA Do generic OTC decongestant products with pseudoephedrine give you problems? I don't seem to be okay for me. Of course you have to check the inactive ingredients to make sure they are IBS okay. -------------------- STABLE: ♂, IBS-D 50+ years - Science of IBS The FODMAP Approach to Managing IBS Symptoms Evidence-based Dietary Management of Functional GI Symptoms: The FODMAP Approach FODMAP Chart & Cheatsheet The Role of Food & Dietary Intervention in IBS Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator     Pages: 1
