FFS #2

[da]

Pseudoephedrine == bad juju for me. It's been long enough that I've not taken it, that I decided I'd give it another try. Dumb, dumb.

Side effects may include (more common) Nervousness; restlessness; trouble in sleeping; (less common) dizziness or lightheadedness; fast or pounding heartbeat; headache.

Yup to all of those.

At least I'm not hallucinating. Though, y'know, the nervousness is really frustrating.

From the last time I was stupid enough to think I needed Sudafed, I should come down in an hour or two.

I don't think I get the jittery so much. At least, I've not had problems drinking neo-citran before bed, and some varieties have pseudoeph in it. Hard to say right now which variety I drank historically though.

Next time I have a cold (may it be a long time!) I'll have to test the variety quingawaga bought because I got the apple flavoured stuff by accident.

(side rant: drug store neo-citran shelf has upwards of 10 varieties, covering multiple axes of drug contents and flavour, it's painfully confusing especially since they changed their packaging.)

I'm tickled that dawn_guy is also talking about the wonders of neo citran, today as well.

Makes me tempted to go out and find some, though I definitely don't want to have to navigate the decision tree to choose the right one. :/

Yeah, well, I'd like to be able to help. But it used to be Neo-Citran, one variety, lemon flavour. Good for what ails you. Now it's a panoply of Neo-Citrans and I'm as lost as you are.

According to the pharmacist at Pharma Plus, my decision tree hit a dead end. All of their neo-citrans use pseudephinephrine (or analogue) for the sinus relief.

On the bright side, she could recommend aceteminephin and antihistimines, which is what I'll take before bed tonight.
