Brompheniramine / pseudoephedrine "Worked very well for my nasal congestion. I took two capsules, both containing 12 mg of brompheniramine maleate and 90 mg of pseudoephedrine HCl. The 180 mg of pseudoephedrine had me a little jumpy for a couple of minutes, but then my nasal congestion was gone, and I was back to my normal self."

"I've taken Bromfed for 17 or 18 years. The combination of ingredients helped my sinuses and congestion, but more importantly, helped keep my headaches at bay. Both migraines and normal headaches decreased dramatically, and now that it is off the market, I am miserable. I've had a headache almost continuously for 2 weeks (since I ran out of my last prescription)."

"Be VERY cautious before using this with small children. Our doctor prescribed it for our toddler (under 2 years old) as a decongestant. We wondered why he was so upset and had manic behavior after a few days. Now I see that it can cause 'excitation in children.' We have stopped it now, and his behavior has improved quickly."

"Every time I'm prescribed this medication, it doesn't really help, and it causes painful stomach cramps/aches."
