Can Any Online Doctor Help In Suggesting Medication For Cold And Sinus?

Hi there, I took Reactine Allergy 10mg Cetirzine Hydrovloride. And i would like to take a TYLENOL® Cold & Sinus Daytime caplet which contains: Analgesic: acetaminophen (extra strength), 500 mg Decongestant: pseudoephedrine hydrochloride, 30 mg Is that ok?

ENT Specialist 's  Response
Hello,
For cold and sinus Tylenol is better , it will give a better relief . The decongestant will help decrease the allergic response and the airway will get better and will be able to breath in better way.
the acetaminophen will give anti pyretic and anti inflammatroy action .
.But once acute response goes then you can take plain cetrizine . As tylenol should not be taken for long time.
In doubt do reply.
