My 16y/o daughter was prescribed Guaifen DM for a sinus problem. She took twice on the first day, the next morning she took one, went to school and at 10:30 I got a phone call at work that she was on her way to the hospital by ambulance for a severe allergic reaction. She had a severe rash all over, tremors (almost like a seizure), swollen throat and tongue. It took about 4 days for the tremors to go away. Ten days later, she experienced another bout of extreme tremors, we went to the Emergency room where the ER Doc said that there was no way that those meds were causing her problems. Now they want to do a MRI and an EEG. I really think that this med is extremely dangerous and has caused all the problems. How long has it been on the market??????

After reading these entries, I believe this is a dangerous drug and should be outlawed. I took it for congestion and have had and awful allergic reaction. My face has become extremely red and itchy and would have been in the emergency room had I had health insurance. This really makes me think that drug companies must be hiring chemists who have cheated their way through school.

I've never had an allergic reaction to any medicine before, but I took Guaifen for a cold and broke out with little tiny bumps all over my fingers, palms, forearms, stomach, & toes. They were only slightly itchy.

Hi Guys I have been suffering from chronic daily headaches since March 2006. Have been to 4 neurologists and they all confirm that there is nothing seriously wrong with me neurologically and they put it down to stress.

I was given the fantastic news that my body doesn't like itself anymore. I don't know when it had a falling out, but all I can say is the course of action to remedy this disease is CRAZY. Taking meds that have more side effects and the restrictions on my daily life, because of the meds, no driving, no salt, no sugar, and little fat in my diet, very little sun. Bathing in skin moisturizer, moodiness, mental confusion, can't work, but expected to continue cooking for family, and cleaning. Which I guess ...

My partner insists that he's not drunk & he's just very tired. He has slured speech, incoherent, unsteady on his feet & drops off to sleep in the blink of an eye. Could it be something other that drink related? or is he just pretending to himself he's ok?
