LuSonal Oral
Generic Name: POTASSIUM GUAIACOLSULFONATE/DECONGESTANT -
ORAL
LuSonal Oral Uses
Potassium guaiacolsulfonate is an expectorant used to help
loosen and clear mucus. Decongestants help relieve a stuffy nose,
promote sinus draining, and improve breathing. This combination
medication is used to treat symptoms associated with the common
cold, allergies, sinusitis, or bronchitis.
Do not use this medication in children younger than 2 years
unless specifically directed by the doctor. To decrease the risk
for serious side effects, carefully follow all of the doctor's
dosage directions. Do not give other cough and cold medication that
might contain the same or similar ingredients (see also Drug
Interactions section). Ask your doctor or pharmacist about other
ways to relieve cough and cold symptoms (e.g., saline nose
drops/spray, using a humidifier or infant nasal suction bulb).
How To Use LuSonal Oral
Take this medication by mouth as directed with a full glass (8
ounces or 240 milliliters) of water. Do not increase the dose or
take it more often or longer than prescribed. It is recommended to
drink plenty of fluids while taking this medication, unless your
doctor instructs you otherwise.
If your symptoms do not improve after 7 days or if you develop a
high fever, notify your doctor promptly.
