I like to pick and choose my symptom relief, instead. Most of the time I need cough relief, so Delsym works well, just not for the 12 hours the label claims. Decongestants give me high blood pressure, so I prefer the nettie pot sluice or an actual nasal spray if I go into complete "vapor lock". The antihistamine portion is probably what knocked you out with AS+. I am pretty immune to the sedative side effects of antihistamines thanks to life-long allergies. If you'd taken something liquid like Nyquil there is also some alky-hall, but not enough that I would imagine a total coma thing like you described. (Fun fact: I always heard that Nyquil was a best seller in dry counties, above and beyond the expected demand for its labelled uses. If you look at the label it is perhaps as strong as a Schnapps or something, and combining that alcohol with acetaminophen is a bad idea.) Hope you feel better soon.

I doesn't make me tired or gittery. But for four hours, no sinus congestion. Plus it's relatively inexpensive - 40 pills for $6.50 and I'm in. <br /><br />Hope you feel better.<br />Robert<br />Roberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08227962713037456290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5185139.post-11065011656996902852014-02-21T08:51:30.048-05:002014-02-21T08:51:30.048-05:00Two Words: Neti PotTwo Words: Neti PotAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03559866808830841676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5185139.post-4715710815896084972014-02-21T00:40:21.537-05:002014-02-21T00:40:21.537-05:00ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwww; get well soon, blobby! :(ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwww; get well soon, blobby! :(anne marie in phillyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11765140782182605141noreply@blogger.com
