I was told that Sudafed is fine to take. Also Robitussin Cough syrup and s/f cough drops. I hope that helps you.... feel better soon.

Tylenol infant drops. Take about 2 tsp. That is what my surgeon said I could take if I didnot want to take the liquid vicadin. Hope you find something! Remember Motrin is a NSAID. Good luck and I hope you feel better

Extra Strength Tylenol Go Tabs are Chewable! They taste kind of awful, but I'm sure not as bad as the crushed ones. I'd call my dr, and ask what to take for the congestion.

There's an adult form of liquid tylenol....... its Rapid Blast Cherry Flavor..... thats actually what the dr told me to take at home after surgery. I only had some the day I got home, but it didnt taste TOO bad. =)

As Melissia said there is a cherry blast adult tyelnol. it is kept behind the pharmacy desk at most stores. Also, very important, dillute that with equal parts water. or you might feel yucky. BLessings, valarie
