Reviews for Dexbrompheniramine / pseudoephedrine

Drixoral Cold and Allergy (dexbrompheniramine / pseudoephedrine) "Drixoral was prescribed for me by my primary physician when it was a prescription drug and when it was changed to over-the-counter medication and has been the only allergy medication to completely relieve my symptoms. Within the last few weeks, local pharmacies have been unable to receive this product. Therefore, I now experience nasal & post-nasal thin watery drainage with resulting throat discomfort."

Drixoral Cold and Allergy (dexbrompheniramine / pseudoephedrine) "This is the only allergy medicine that has ever worked for me. I've been using it since it was a prescription only capsule and I'm honestly suffering without it. Why they took it off the market is beyond reason?"

Drixoral Cold and Allergy (dexbrompheniramine / pseudoephedrine) "My doctors have tried repeatedly for YEARS to find another drug to replace Drixoral Cold & Allergy Tablets in treatment of my allergies. All have failed. In fact, every time Drixoral has removed from my regimen, I have gone into asthmatic bronchitis. Needless to say, it distresses me greatly to know that Drixoral is not readily available now."

Drixoral Cold and Allergy (dexbrompheniramine / pseudoephedrine) "I started using Drixoral many years ago as prescribed by my primary care doctor. Over the years when new drugs came out he would have me to try them. Nothing works like Drixoral. I am having a hard time finding it in the DC area and have been really suffering. "

Drixoral Cold and Allergy (dexbrompheniramine / pseudoephedrine) "I've used Drixoral for many years for allergic rhinitis after Rondec-TR was discontinued as it worked the best with NO side effects. Apparently it has been discontinued and will no longer be available. Hope I can find something else that works."

Dexaphen SA (dexbrompheniramine / pseudoephedrine) "I've had allergies (Hayfever) my whole life, since I was 5 years old. I've been taking a perscribed medicine called Dexaphen SA for the most part of it. It seems to be the same as Drixoral, or very close to it. These are the only medicines that helps me recover. Without it, I will keep getting worse, and eventually will end up with a sinus infection. This is the best medicine I have ever used to get rid of allergy symptoms. Please start making it again, I can't find it at any pharmacy."

Drixoral Cold and Allergy (dexbrompheniramine / pseudoephedrine) "I've used this product for years and I agree with the other comments. It's the best. However, recently I've been unable to get it. I guess if a product is not highly advertised, it's not popular enough to be marketable."

Drixoral Cold and Allergy (dexbrompheniramine / pseudoephedrine) "I've tried everything for my allergies since they get so bad from where I live. A friend of mine gave me Drixoral to try and it did magic. Not one sign of allergies the next day! It does make me drowsy so I take it at night and wake up with no symptoms. Sometimes even during the day I'll still be drowsy so I tried to cut the pill in half so it wouldn't be too strong for me but that was impossible."

Drixoral Cold and Allergy (dexbrompheniramine / pseudoephedrine) "This needs to be back on the store shelves at once. It is much more effective for allergic rhinitis and nasal congestion than any other product on the market."

Drixoral Cold and Allergy (dexbrompheniramine / pseudoephedrine) "Drixoral really worked for me and now I can't buy it anymore. This is what happened to the 12-hour Contact time release capsules which also worked great and now can't be purchased."
