Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I took 180mg of Allegra at 2pm today because I thought I was having allergies but I think I have the cold that s been going around my house. Can I take Theraflu nighttime tonight? I didn t know if I could take it because of it having an antihistamine in it.

General & Family Physician, Dr. Vasudha's Response
Hello,
Allegra has an antiallergic reaction by blocking histamine receptors &theraflue has antihistaminic action. Allegra causes minimal drowsiness so would add minimally to the drowsiness of Theraflu.
Ideally, the scan is due Alen with a 12-hour difference but with severe symptoms & otherwise healthy Petsonit can be taken after 8 hours Gapafter eating well &taking rest for 12hours of the dose.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Vasudha Jayant Athavale, General & Family Physician
