Guaifen-C and dizziness

prescribed for sinus infection. it did help the congestion, but also caused EXTREME fatigue, slow movement, slight hallucinations (a lot of "did i just see..." moments), tremors, dizziness...and this was off ONE pill. i took it on friday, was in bed all day saturday, and had the tremors on sunday.

it's monday morning, & i still don't feel quite right. back to the natural cures for me...

I hve been taking Guaifen since Friday. By Sunday, I have experienced severe nausea, sleeplessness, headaches, hot flashes, dizziness, stomach pain, complete loss of appetite, shaking and increased heartbeat. If the side effects of the cure are worse than the sinus infection, why put this on the market?!

I am currently using guaifen and albuterol for severe cold symptoms. The most noticeable side effects I have experienced are nausea, decreased appetite and dizziness.

sensitive to microwave, felt a warm feeling then dizziness after using the microwave while on this medication.

My doctor did not inform me this is a psuedo-ephedrine drug. Which means you should NOT consume caffienated products while on the medication. It could increase the side-effect of dizzyness. The psuedo-ephedrine is also the reason you could feel like "your on speed" or the loss of appetite. Ephedrine isn't for everyone. If you experience those feelings it's best to take a half dose or to stop taking it all. Ephedrine/ephedra are used in many diet pills- most of which are being pulled from the shelves.

When used correctly; modifed to fit an individual, Guaifen can work beautifully.

just got this med form the Dr yesterday ..Started taking this morning after I ate something while at work..I had a very weird feeling and awful dry mouth, dizziness, blurry eyes, after about a hr it went away...I was told by the Dr. that you should not take after 4pm because it will keep you awoke..So after reading these I am only going to take one per day for about 4days only... that's why they say that the drug is new they are using us as examples so good luck and only try one pill in the morning drink plenty of liquids and eat somehting....

I was prescribed Guaifen 600Mg tablets to help alleviate sinus and chest congestion. It seemed to help for the first day, but today at noon I literally thought I was going to die. I experienced severe dizziness to the point I had to hold my head up. I was ubable to stand or walk. My co-workers said all the color disappeared from my face and my hands, feet and arms felt as though I was standing an ice cold shower. My co-workers took my blood pressure and pulse and they were normal, It took at least 30 minutes before I could get up.

I took this drug for four days and had to stop taking it. On the third and fourth days I experienced vaginal spotting, sleeplessness, nausea and extreme dizziness. On top of that, my inner-ear problem (which I took it for) felt no better than it did before taking this drug!

I stopped taking this medecine because the side effect were horrible; trouble sleeping, severe dizziness, nausea.

dry mouth, dizziness, felt like I was buzzed a bit
