Wal Phed Pe By karlawmcdonald on Aug 21, 2008 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

Can you imagine how full my medicine cabinet is yet? Let me tell you it is packed, we have tried it all!

This is a generic medicine for sinus and allergies from Walgreen's. It is pseudo ephedrine free, but does contain phenylephrine and chlorpheniramine. It helps to relieve sinus pressure, sinus and nasal congestion, sneezing and itchy watery eyes.

You get 24 tablets for $3.97, which does not sound too bad, because it is a one tablet does, but then you read you have to take one tablet every 4 hours and they come in a blister pack, both things I do not like.

You have to be careful taking this medication if you have high blood pressure, as this can run it up. There are several other conditions you need to take caution with such as: diabetes, glaucoma, heart disease, thyroid disease and a few others not mentioned, so be sure and talk to your pharmacist before choosing this.

The medicine does work and we will use it, but like I stated having to take it so often and having to fight with a blister pack is a major turn off for me.
