Some useful med without prescription

Why pharmacy need to open so early?? Every time I get day shift, i have to be in the pharmacy before 8am, coz pharmacy open at 8am, and I have to open the pharmacy, feel i have a great responsibility, cannot late for work..

anyway.. a lot of people got sick recently, so let me do a little bit of OTC stuff o

Mucinex is tablet form of cough medicine (if you don’t like cough syrup), they come with Mucinex, Mucinex DM, and Mucinex D.. Mucinex is for thins and loosens mucus, DM is for mucus and dry cough, MucinexD is for cough with mucus and nasal decogestion. Common cold is different from allergy.. the most common distinguish is by itch eye, watery eye.. Benadryl is for allergy (allergy is from pollen, dust, cat/dog) itch.. Benadryl is pretty effective, but will make you very drowsiness.. Clartin is also for allergy, but not as effective as Benadryl, so less drowsiness.. I have seasonal allergy, I take Clartin myself. Cortaid.. (hydrocortisone) is topical anti-itch cream/ointment..

I feel I still don’t know a lot of stuffs.. so I have a lot to learn too..

next time.. Be healthy!

Be healthy!
