How should I take Ryvent?
Use exactly as directed on the label, or as prescribed by your doctor. Do not use in larger or smaller amounts or for longer than recommended. Cough or cold medicine is usually taken only for a short time until your symptoms clear up.
You may need to shake the oral suspension (liquid) before using. Measure liquid medicine with the dosing syringe provided, or with a special dose-measuring spoon or medicine cup. If you do not have a dose-measuring device, ask your pharmacist for one.
Call your doctor if your symptoms do not improve after 7 days of treatment, or if you have a fever with a headache, cough, or skin rash.
Store at room temperature away from moisture, heat, and light.
What happens if I miss a dose?
Since Ryvent is used when needed, you may not be on a dosing schedule. If you are on a schedule, use the missed dose as soon as you remember. Skip the missed dose if it is almost time for your next scheduled dose. Do not use extra medicine to make up the missed dose.
What happens if I overdose?
Seek emergency medical attention or call 115. An overdose of carbinoxamine can be fatal, especially to a child.
Overdose symptoms may include extreme drowsiness or restless feeling, dilated pupils, hallucinations, or seizure (convulsions).
What should I avoid while taking Ryvent?
This medication may cause blurred vision and may impair your thinking or reactions. Be careful if you drive or do anything that requires you to be alert and able to see clearly.
Avoid drinking alcohol. It may increase certain side effects of carbinoxamine.
Ask a doctor or pharmacist before using any other cold, allergy, or sleep medicine. Many combination medicines contain antihistamines. Taking certain products together can cause you to get too much of this type of medicine.
