[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 571642, member: 84"] Phenergran soothes coughs too Jo. You just wouldn't want to use it too often or you could have complications from not coughing the nasties up and getting rid of it. Don't worry about an extra dose. One extra dose won't hurt you, might make you groggier. Just don't make a habit of it. lol That warning is on there so that people won't go crazy (for relief or for recreational purposes) and actually OD themselves. You need some rest. I know you don't like the codeine type cough medications, but if you can get some rest.....you probably wouldn't be taking them that long. Have you been checked by doctor again for pneumonia? When I had pneumonia I couldn't stop coughing long enough to sleep at all. Not a wink. Cough wasn't productive anymore either. My muscles were exhausted and sore as heck from all that coughing without a break. I finally gave in and got that cough syrup and did I sleep.............and sleep...............and sleep.............and sleep. I didn't realize how utterly exhausted I was from my body trying so hard to throw off that bug. Before long when I coughed......it became productive. Muscles weren't overworked anymore and could get it up. I started getting better after being sick for weeks. You need to call off work. Time to take care of yourself, pamper yourself with plenty of rest. ((hugs)) [/QUOTE]
