HC Tussive D Can Be Taken Daily To Reduce Dizziness?

Hi,I m a social worker who has a client with cognitive deficits. I recently found out that my client has been prescribed HC Tussive D oral for 3 1/2 years to treat dizziness. I have researched this drug and it appears to be used for short term use. is there any reason someone would take HC Tussive D every day for 3 1/2 years for dizziness?

Hi. The syrup is used for dry cough and not for dizziness.
It contains hydrocodone for which some patients will be addicted and hence take regularly. So kindly check whether he is taking fir dizziness or dry cough or he is addicted to it.
