What is Medent-PE (guaifenesin and phenylephrine)?

There are many brands and forms of guaifenesin and phenylephrine available and not all brands are listed on this leaflet.


Guaifenesin is an expectorant. It helps loosen congestion in your chest and throat, making it easier to cough out through your mouth.


Phenylephrine is a decongestant that shrinks blood vessels in the nasal passages. Dilated blood vessels can cause nasal congestion (stuffy nose).


The combination of guaifenesin and phenylephrine is used to treat stuffy nose and sinus congestion, and to reduce chest congestion caused by the common cold or flu.


Guaifenesin and phenylephrine may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.


What is the most important information I should know about Medent-PE (guaifenesin and phenylephrine)?


There are many brands and forms of guaifenesin and phenylephrine available and not all brands are listed on this leaflet.


Do not give this medication to a child younger than 4 years old. Always ask a doctor before giving a cough or cold medicine to a child. Death can occur from the misuse of cough and cold medicines in very young children. Ask a doctor or pharmacist before using any other cough, cold, or allergy medicine. Guaifenesin and phenylephrine are contained in many combination medicines. Taking certain products together can cause you to get too much of a certain drug. Check the label to see if a medicine contains guaifenesin or phenylephrine.

What should I discuss with my healthcare provider before taking Medent-PE (guaifenesin and phenylephrine)?


You should not use this medication if you are allergic to guaifenesin or phenylephrine, or to other decongestants, diet pills, stimulants, or ADHD medications. Do not use guaifenesin and phenylephrine if you have used an MAO inhibitor such as furazolidone (Furoxone), isocarboxazid (Marplan), phenelzine (Nardil), rasagiline (Azilect), selegiline (Eldepryl, Emsam, Zelapar), or tranylcypromine (Parnate) in the last 14 days. Serious, life threatening side effects can occur if you use guaifenesin and phenylephrine before the MAO inhibitor has cleared from your body.

Ask a doctor or pharmacist if it is safe for you to take this medication if you have:



  • heart disease or high blood pressure;




  • diabetes;




  • circulation problems;




  • glaucoma;




  • overactive thyroid; or




  • enlarged prostate or problems with urination.




It is not known if this medication may be harmful to an unborn baby. Do not use this medication without your doctor's advice if you are pregnant. This medication passes into breast milk and could harm a nursing baby. Do not use this medication without telling your doctor if you are breast-feeding a baby.

Artificially-sweetened liquid forms of cold medicine may contain phenylalanine. This would be important to know if you have phenylketonuria (PKU). Check the ingredients and warnings on the medication label if you are concerned about phenylalanine.


How should I take Medent-PE (guaifenesin and phenylephrine)?


Use exactly as directed on the label, or as prescribed by your doctor. Do not use in larger or smaller amounts or for longer than recommended. Cold medicine is usually taken only for a short time until your symptoms clear up.


Do not give this medication to a child younger than 4 years old. Always ask a doctor before giving cough or cold medicine to a child. Death can occur from the misuse of cough or cold medicine in very young children.

Measure the liquid form of this medicine with a special dose-measuring spoon or cup, not a regular table spoon. If you do not have a dose-measuring device, ask your pharmacist for one.


Do not crush, chew, break, or open an extended-release tablet or capsule. Swallow it whole. Breaking or opening the pill may cause too much of the drug to be released at one time. Take guaifenesin and phenylephrine with food if it upsets your stomach. Talk with your doctor if your symptoms do not improve after 7 days of treatment, or if you have a fever with a headache, cough, or skin rash. Drink extra fluids to help loosen the congestion and lubricate your throat while you are taking this medication. Store at room temperature away from moisture and heat.

What happens if I miss a dose?


Since cough or cold medicine is taken as needed, you may not be on a dosing schedule. If you are taking the medication regularly, take the missed dose as soon as you remember. Skip the missed dose if it is almost time for your next scheduled dose. Do not take extra medicine to make up the missed dose.


What happens if I overdose?


Seek emergency medical attention or call the Poison Help line at 1-800-222-1222.

Overdose symptoms may include nausea, vomiting, numbness or tingly feeling, dizziness, and feeling restless or nervous.


What should I avoid while taking Medent-PE (guaifenesin and phenylephrine)?


This medication may impair your thinking or reactions. Be careful if you drive or do anything that requires you to be alert. Drinking alcohol can increase certain side effects of guaifenesin and phenylephrine. Ask a doctor or pharmacist before using any other cough, cold, or allergy medicine. Guaifenesin and phenylephrine are contained in many combination medicines. Taking certain products together can cause you to get too much of a certain drug. Check the label to see if a medicine contains guaifenesin or phenylephrine.

Avoid taking this medication with diet pills, caffeine pills, or other stimulants (such as ADHD medications) without your doctor's advice. Taking a stimulant together with a decongestant can increase your risk of unpleasant side effects.


Medent-PE (guaifenesin and phenylephrine) side effects

Adcetris is used for:

Treating certain types of lymphoma. It may also be used for other conditions as determined by your doctor.


Adcetris is a monoclonal antibody. It works by killing cancer cells.

Contact your doctor or health care provider right away if any of these apply to you.



Before using Adcetris:


Some medical conditions may interact with Adcetris. Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you have any medical conditions, especially if any of the following apply to you:


  • if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or are breast-feeding

  • if you are taking any prescription or nonprescription medicine, herbal preparation, or dietary supplement

  • if you have allergies to medicines, foods, or other substances

  • if you have a history of nerve problems (eg, nerve pain)

  • if you have a history of an infusion-related reaction to Adcetris

Some MEDICINES MAY INTERACT with Adcetris. Tell your health care provider if you are taking any other medicines, especially any of the following:


  • Bleomycin because the risk of lung problems may be increased

  • Certain azole antifungals (eg, itraconazole, ketoconazole, voriconazole), clarithromycin, nefazodone, protease inhibitors (eg, boceprevir, ritonavir), or telithromycin because they may increase the risk of Adcetris's side effects

  • Carbamazepine, fosphenytoin, phenobarbital, phenytoin, primidone, rifamycins (eg, rifampin), or St. John's wort because they may decrease Adcetris's effectiveness

This may not be a complete list of all interactions that may occur. Ask your health care provider if Adcetris may interact with other medicines that you take. Check with your health care provider before you start, stop, or change the dose of any medicine.


How to use Adcetris:


Use Adcetris as directed by your doctor. Check the label on the medicine for exact dosing instructions.


  • Adcetris is usually given as an injection at your doctor's office, hospital, or clinic.

  • Do not shake Adcetris.

  • Do not use Adcetris if it contains particles, is cloudy or discolored, or if the vial is cracked or damaged.

  • Keep this product, as well as syringes and needles, out of the reach of children and pets. Do not reuse needles, syringes, or other materials. Ask your health care provider how to dispose of these materials after use. Follow all local rules for disposal.

  • If you miss a dose of Adcetris, contact your doctor right away.

Ask your health care provider any questions you may have about how to use Adcetris.

  • Do NOT use more than the recommended dose, stop using Adcetris, or use for longer than prescribed without checking with your doctor.

  • Infusion-related reactions have occurred with the use of Adcetris. Your health care provider will monitor you for these reactions while you receive Adcetris. If you have experienced an infusion-related reaction before, you should receive certain other medicines (acetaminophen, an antihistamine, a corticosteroid) before you receive your dose of Adcetris. Contact your doctor right away if you experience breathing problems (eg, shortness of breath), chills, cough, fever, itching, nausea, or rash while you receive Adcetris or within 24 hours of the infusion. Discuss any questions or concerns with your doctor.

  • Adcetris may lower the ability of your body to fight infection. Avoid contact with people who have colds or infections. Tell your doctor if you notice signs of infection like fever, sore throat, rash, or chills.

  • Adcetris may reduce the number of clot-forming cells (platelets) in your blood. Avoid activities that may cause bruising or injury. Tell your doctor if you have unusual bruising or bleeding. Tell your doctor if you have dark, tarry, or bloody stools.

  • A serious and possibly fatal condition called tumor lysis syndrome (TLS) has been reported in certain patients taking Adcetris. Contact your doctor right away if you develop symptoms, such as fast or irregular heartbeat; fainting; decreased urination; muscle weakness or cramps; nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or loss of appetite; or sluggishness. Discuss any questions or concerns with your doctor.

  • Tell your doctor or dentist that you take Adcetris before you receive any medical or dental care, emergency care, or surgery.

  • Lab tests, including complete blood cell counts, may be performed while you use Adcetris. These tests may be used to monitor your condition or check for side effects. Be sure to keep all doctor and lab appointments.
