Chlorpheniramine / hydrocodone for Cold Symptoms "I was prescribed this medicine after going to urgent care for what I thought was a basic head cold. I was told I had the flu. I did not think my symptoms were consistent with what I considered the flu, but I had not been sick in a long time and cannot remember when I last had the flu. The medicine definitely dried me up, per se, but I started getting really jittery and anxious, and when trying to go to sleep, could not due to the itching. I know I am sensitive to medications and have never had this medicine before. If you are like me and sensitive to medicines, be prepared for side effects."

For Cough "This stuff is scary. It gives me night sweats, but more concerning, I get really high levels of anxiety, and I am concerned about my breathing. Feels too relaxed, like breathing may stop. Horrific feeling. Result is massive insomnia, and I still cough."
