[QUOTE="Nancy, post: 476418, member: 59"] It's a red flag. No rehab center would tell an addict it is ok to take narcotics even if they are sick. They go out of their way to educated the addict that they must stay away from all medicines that contain certain ingredients, even cold medicine. We got a complete list, and it is pages long, of all the medications difficult child cannot take. In our family meetings we talked about this at great lengths, so that the family knows what to tell medical personnel in the case of an emergency. The people who are telling her it's ok to take this are not being honest. I will look for the information given to us and see if I can post it here. When difficult child was living in the sober house she was not even allowed to take cold medicine and certainly not mouthwash, most mouthwash contains alcohol. She has to tell any doctor she sees that she is an alcoholic so they do not prescribe anythign that is narcotic. Nancy [/QUOTE]
