Mucinex Fast-Max Cold Flu

Drug Info for mucinex fast-max cold flu

Acetaminophen is used to relieve mild to moderate pain from headaches, muscle aches, menstrual periods, colds and sore throats, toothaches, backaches, reactions to vaccinations (shots), and to reduce fever. Acetaminophen may also be used to relieve the pain of osteoarthritis (arthritis caused by the breakdown of the lining of the joints). Acetaminophen is in a class of medications called analgesics (pain relievers) and antipyretics (fever reducers). It works by changing the way the body senses pain and by cooling the body.

Measure the oral liquid medicine with a marked measuring spoon, oral syringe, or medicine cup.

You may need to shake the liquid medicine container before opening it.

You should not use this medicine if you have had an allergic reaction to acetaminophen (Tylenol®), or to any other ingredients in the medicine you are using. Do not give any over-the-counter (OTC) cough and cold medicine to a baby or child under 4 years old. Using these medicines in very young children might cause serious or possibly life-threatening side effects.

Children may be more sensitive to this medicine than adults, especially if they take too much of it. Always read the medicine label carefully so you give your child the right amount. Ask your pharmacist or doctor if you are not sure how much medicine to give your child.

Make sure your doctor knows if you are pregnant or breast feeding, or if you have heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, asthma, emphysema or other serious lung problems, an enlarged prostate gland that causes trouble passing urine, or thyroid problems.

Tell your doctor if you use anything else that makes you sleepy. Some examples are allergy medicine, narcotic pain medicine, and alcohol.
