I have a sinus infection and my doc prescribed amoxicillin and said I could take one of four things: claritin, mucinex, sudafed (only the plain kind -- little red pill), and zyrtek. I was happy when she said mucinex because that is what I usually take when I wasn't preggo and it worked really well for me.

Yea feather2e is right, its just robitussin but one that works for the symptoms you are having. i was going nuts for days cause i couldnt breathe and called my doctor. They told me robitussin, stay hydrated and i could drink hot tea with honey. Hope ya feel better

You should probably call your Dr but I do remember my Dr telling me nothing but tylenol cold products. That was 13 years ago though. I don't know what is reccomended now.
