Just be VERY careful and heed the instructions about keeping it on a flat service as opposed to lifting it up to your face.
Please don't ask me how I know but the doctor told me the burns would take six months to heal, fortunately they healed in six weeks -- must have been the Peg. LOL.
BTW read recently that "expectorant" cough meds really don't do any better than a placebo. That said, I found decent relief with Robotussin DM and would use it again. Probably best to check the ingredients though and run it by your doctor. Good luck!

I have no idea. Can you ask your Nurse or Doctor. I do know that alot of medicine is processed by the liver and it not the best. I have been battling a cough due to allergies. Some days very little and some days more. If it does not go away in a week I will ask m y doctor what can I take to get rid of it.
