OT**my obgyn's list of approved self medicating!

thought this might help a few people....my obgyn hands this out to all his patients.....i guess maybe *you* that want it could cut and paste and print it if you'd like too!


**cold/sinus(upt to 12 wks): benedryl, tylenol(either strength), saline nose spray
**cold/sinus(12+ wks):any non-aspirin preperation: ie actifed, benadryl, chlortrimenton, sudafed, tavist, claritin(or D), tylenol cold/sinus, tylenol sines/allergy

**headaches:extra strength tylenol, tylenol migraine, excedrin(lower strengths)

**cough:robutissum dm, any cough drops

**heartburn:any *low sodium* antacid ie, maslox, mylanta or rolaids, zantac(75 & 150), pepcid or tagemet

**nausea/vomiting:clear liquids, pepto, vitamin b-6(100mg 3x/day), emetrol

**vag YI: monistat, gyne-lotrimin

**hemorrhoids:prep-h, anusol, tucks pads/wipes

**diarrhea: clear liq's, kaopectate, immodium ad

**sore throat:chloroseptic, cepacal loz's, sucrets

sorry, it's so long, but i thought it'd help ya later! so it's not golden, this is just something my obgyn hands out, rather than always calling his nurse line! if i mispelled anything, i'm sorry i was trying to type it fast for a reply to someone!!!
