Re-Drylex

Generic Name: dexchlorpheniramine, methscopolamine, and phenylephrine (DEX klor fen IR a meen, METH skoe POL a meen, FEN il EFF rin)

Brand Names: DexPhen M, Extendryl, Re-Drylex

What is Re-Drylex (dexchlorpheniramine, methscopolamine, and phenylephrine)?

Dexchlorpheniramine is an antihistamine that reduces the natural chemical histamine in the body. Histamine can produce symptoms of sneezing, itching, watery eyes, and runny nose.

Methscopolamine is an anticholinergic (an-tye-kol-in-URJ-ik) that has a drying effect on the nasal passages.

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

The combination of dexchlorpheniramine, methscopolamine, and phenylephrine is used to treat runny nose, sneezing, itchy throat, watery eyes, and sinus congestion caused by allergies or the common cold.

This medication is also used to treat skin rash, hives, or swelling caused by an allergic reaction.

Dexchlorpheniramine, methscopolamine, and phenylephrine may also be used for other purposes not listed in this medication guide.

What is the most important information I should know about Re-Drylex (dexchlorpheniramine, methscopolamine, and phenylephrine)?

Serious, life-threatening side effects can occur if you take a cold or allergy medicine before the MAO inhibitor has cleared from your body.

If you take certain products together you may accidentally take too much of a certain drug.

How should I take Re-Drylex (dexchlorpheniramine, methscopolamine, and phenylephrine)?

Take this medication exactly as it was prescribed for you. Do not take the medication in larger amounts, or take it for longer than recommended by your doctor. Follow the directions on your prescription label. Cold medicine is usually taken for only a short time until your symptoms clear up.

Measure liquid 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.

Tell your doctor if your symptoms do not improve after a few days of treatment, or if you also have a fever with headache, cough, or skin rash.

This medication can cause you to have unusual results with allergy skin tests. Tell any doctor who treats you that you are taking an antihistamine.

Store this medicine at room temperature, away from heat, light, and moisture.

What happens if I miss a dose?

Since cold or allergy medicine is usually taken only 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. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and take the medicine at your next regularly scheduled time. Do not take extra medicine to make up the missed dose.

Seek emergency medical attention if you think you have used too much of this medicine.

Overdose symptoms may include nausea, vomiting, extreme drowsiness, confusion, weak or shallow breathing, and seizure (convulsions).

Do not use any other over-the-counter cold, cough, or allergy medication without first asking your doctor or pharmacist. Dexchlorpheniramine and phenylephrine are contained in many medicines available over the counter. If you take certain products together you may accidentally take too much of a certain drug.
