 Robitussin
I had read that Robitussin, without the DM in the name, was safe. The sole ingredient is "dextromethorphan." Now, I'm reading about the potential adverse reactions between that ingredient and Namenda. I just gave my LO 2 tsps, the recommended dose for adults. How long will it take to see if he will have adverse reaction? Thanks, Terri

 Re: Robitussin
My husband has done great with plain guaifenesin [Mucinex] for cough.

 Re: Robitussin
Terri, This is a great question for the prescribing MD and the pharmacist. Robin
