Chlorpheniramine / pseudoephedrine for Sinusitis "This is the ONLY sinus/allergy medication that worked consistently for me. My doctor prescribed the Deconamine SR, which has a sustained release of 12 hrs. FINALLY, after years of trying all the other prescription antihistamines/decongestants, when I took this, I could wake up without a sore throat from drainage or dry mouth from overzealous decongestants. It worked like a charm!"

Chlorpheniramine / pseudoephedrine for Allergic Rhinitis "I also am upset. This medication I have been taking for about 28 years. I have been on everything else. Nothing works like my Deconamine. I have been hitting up all of the pharmacies around where I live trying to get what they have left. I too am a chronic sinusitis sufferer, 6-8 infections a year. And my Deconamine was the other thing that gave me a little relief. Please do something. We need this medicine!"

Chlorpheniramine / pseudoephedrine for Allergic Rhinitis "I took this product as Nolamine when it first came on the market, and took it through my pregnancy with my daughter, no ill side effects (though I would not recommend that for everyone). When it was removed from the market, I could not find an allergy medicine that worked as well. I have tried Zyrtec and Claritin, neither of which worked. I discovered that Chlor-Trimeton has the active ingredient that Nolamine had, and have been taking that. It is the only medicine that works for me."

Chlorpheniramine / pseudoephedrine for Allergic Rhinitis "This is the best combo medication I've ever taken, including both OTC and prescription, for year-round allergies. I am also asthmatic, and this does not aggravate that condition. It also does not dry out your mouth like so many others do. It really does last. I've used it for 7 years now, until recently the cost skyrocketed. Out of reach for me, as I have no insurance coverage. This has left me with daily headaches from allergies, since I've found nothing to replace it."

Chlorpheniramine / pseudoephedrine for Allergic Rhinitis "Deconamine is the only allergy medication that I have taken that relieves my symptoms of watery eyes, runny nose, sneezing, coughing. It does not hype me up or make sleeping impossible or hard to fall asleep. I usually only have to take 1 capsule daily to relieve my symptoms. It also dissolves easily, as other medications were passed through my bowel undissolved. Unfortunately, it is no longer available in my area of Elkin, NC."

Chlorpheniramine / pseudoephedrine for Allergic Rhinitis "This is the only drug on the market that has worked to keep me healthy year-round. It keeps my lungs clear and prevents it from turning into bronchitis, which, if not treated with antibiotics, then turns to pneumonia."

For Allergic Rhinitis "After taking Actifed for over 40 years, but it was discontinued. Now we have this, and I must stop using it because it jacks up my blood pressure and interacts with my Levothyroxine. Great, now I suffer from allergies."

Chlorpheniramine / pseudoephedrine for Allergic Rhinitis "This medication helped me. I took it for years. I don't know who took this off the market. You claim to care about people, if you really cared, you would be interested in what helped people."

For Sinusitis "I could not sleep after taking this medication. I never have insomnia, and here it is 2:37 AM and I am looking up the side effects of this drug. Sure enough, trouble sleeping/insomnia is listed."

Chlorpheniramine / pseudoephedrine for Allergic Rhinitis "I went to a medical clinic with flu-like symptoms, and the doctor on duty prescribed this drug. If I would have known how serious the side effects were, I would not have taken it."

Chlorpheniramine / pseudoephedrine for Allergic Rhinitis "I am very angry, upset, frustrated when I heard recently that this medication has been taken off the market. This is the only medication that works on my allergies, and believe me, I have tried Allegra, Claritin, Zyrtec, Benadryl, Sudafed, you name it, I've tried it. Nothing else works. My eyes are swelling, my nose is running, and I am using two different medicines just to keep it at bay, but it's not clearing it up. Please get this back out to the pharmacy. There are a lot of us that use this medication who are severe allergy sufferers. Help us get this back to the pharmacy."
