What over the counter medicine can I take for a bad cold that won't interfere with coumadin and insulin? |
I have a very bad cold and don't know what "over the counter" medicine I can take that won't interfere with coumadin (blood thinner) and insulin for diabetes. I don't know about the blood thinner ( i would guess anything with aspirin in it) but if you are a diabetic you certainly need a cough med with no sugar in it. and you would be surprised at how many do. Ask your pharmacist If you are taking coumadin and would like to take an OTC that would not interfere with the drug, you certainly would not take anything that contains aspirin. Aspirin containing medicine interacts with the coumadin. The best I would suggest is tylenol. Report It talk to the pharmacist at your local drug store. THEY know that answer!! I wouldn't rely on Yahoo Answerers... how do you know we know what we are talking about??? If I were you I would talk with a pharmacist. My PCP would look in his computer when he was prescribing new medication for me because of the side effects. My new Dr. had not opened a book, nor hand held computer as of yet. BEST THING TO DO IS ASK YOUR PHARMACIST... THAT IS THE SAFEST THING TO DO....THAT IS WHAT I DO FOR MY DAD HE IS ON THE SAME PLUS SOME OTHERS... |
