Taking Coricidin HBP Chest Congestion and Cough With Flonase

Coricidin

Coricidin HBP Chest Congestion and Cough is a combination product which contains the following ingredients:

  • Dextromethorphan (cough suppressant)
  • Guaifenesin (expectorant)

Both ingredients are safe to take with Flonase

Flonase

Flonase nasal spray is a corticosteroid that is used to reduce inflammation of the nasal passages and is especially helpful in the treatment of allergy symptoms. As Flonase is administered as a small dose topically in the nose, blood concentrations of the drug do not reach high levels and therefore, has few drug interactions.

Summary

Coricidin HBP Chest Congestion and Cough is safe to take at the same time as Flonase.
