How It Works

Acetaminophen reduces fever and pain by inhibiting prostaglandin synthesis in the brain. Dextromethorphan suppresses cough by acting on the cough center in the medulla. Doxylamine, an antihistamine, reduces sneezing, runny nose, and watery eyes while providing mild sedation to promote rest.

Dosage

Take Zedex D with a full glass of water. Can be taken with or without food. Do not exceed maximum daily dose.

Duration of Action

Zedex D begins working within 30-60 minutes of administration. Fever reduction and pain relief typically last 4-6 hours. Cough suppression effects may persist for 6-8 hours, while antihistamine effects provide symptom relief for 4-6 hours. Peak effects occur within 1-2 hours.

Side Effects

Common side effects include drowsiness, dizziness, dry mouth, and mild stomach upset. Some patients may experience blurred vision, constipation, or difficulty urinating. Rare but serious side effects include liver damage from acetaminophen overdose or severe allergic reactions.

Warning

Do not exceed recommended dosage or duration of use. Avoid alcohol while taking Zedex D due to increased liver toxicity risk. May cause drowsiness; avoid driving or operating machinery. Not suitable for persistent cough from smoking, asthma, or emphysema. Seek medical attention for high fever, persistent symptoms, or signs of liver toxicity.

Pregnancy and Breastfeeding

Zedex D should be used during pregnancy only if clearly needed and benefits outweigh risks. Acetaminophen is generally safe during pregnancy, but dextromethorphan and doxylamine require caution. Consult healthcare provider before use while breastfeeding as ingredients may pass into breast milk.

Interaction

• May increase sedation when combined with alcohol or other depressants
• Potential liver toxicity when used with other acetaminophen-containing medications
• May interact with MAO inhibitors, causing dangerous reactions
• Possible increased side effects with other antihistamines
• May enhance effects of blood thinners
• Potential interaction with certain antidepressants

Precaution

Use with caution in patients with liver disease, kidney problems, or glaucoma. Avoid in those with enlarged prostate, breathing problems, or sleep apnea. Elderly patients may be more sensitive to side effects. Do not use with other cough and cold medications containing similar ingredients.

Important Information

Zedex D is for temporary symptom relief only. Discontinue use and consult a doctor if symptoms persist beyond 7 days or worsen. Store at room temperature away from moisture and heat. Keep out of reach of children. Do not use if seal is broken. Check all other medications for acetaminophen content to avoid overdose.
