Hello!
About two weeks ago, my family and I were hit by a pretty strong virus that we suspect is influenza (since the Covid test was negative). After the "usual" symptoms for several days, i.e. fever, chills, aches and pains, sore throat and great fatigue, everyone seems to be doing fine. Except for me, who has a nasty dry cough (and sometimes a bit of a wet one) and a stuffy nose. I have to say that I tend to get viruses, no matter what kind, that way.
That said, I usually have access to more medications to deal with them, but considering that I'm on Venlafaxine (150 mg), I've only dared to take Tylenol for the headaches, saline water to clear my sinuses every day and lozenges to soothe my throat (but it only soothes very temporarily).
I also drink a lot of water.
I would like to know if there are other things I can use to control this cough? Can I take Tylenol Sinus? (I think not because it interacts with the Venlafaxine, but I wanted to check with you).
Thank you very much!
