transaminase levels
has been noted.

to pseudoephedrine may display ephedrine-like reactions such
as tachycardia,
palpitations, headache,
dizziness or nausea.

Drug Abuse and Dependence
Controlled Substance: Hydrocodone in this combination elixir
is controlled by the Drug Enforcement Administration. This combination
elixir is a Schedule III controlled substance.
Abuse: Hydrocodone is a narcotic
drug related to codeine
with similar abuse potential.
Dependence: Hydrocodone can produce drug
dependence of the
morphine type. Psychic dependence,
physical dependence
and tolerance may
develop if dosage recommendations
are greatly exceeded over a prolonged period of time.
DRUG INTERACTIONS
Hydrocodone may potentiate
the effects of other narcotics, general anesthetics, tranquilizers,
sedatives and hypnotics, tricyclic antidepressants, MAO inhibitors,
alcohol, and other CNS
depressants. Beta-adrenergic blockers and MAO
inhibitors potentiate
the sympathomimetic
effects of pseudoephedrine. Sympathomimetics may reduce
the antihypertensive
effects of methyldopa, mecamylamine, reserpine
and veratrum alkaloids.
DO NOT TAKE THIS MEDICINE if you are also taking furazolidone or a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI). ADDITIONAL MONITORING OF YOUR DOSE OR CONDITION may be needed if you are taking bromocriptine, guanadrel, guanethidine, or medicine to alkalinize the urine.
