Expert advice for Solvin Lozenges
Use dextromethorphan exactly as directed on the label, and in doses prescribed by your doctor. Cough medicine is usually taken only for a short time until the symptoms clear up. If syrup, measure the liquid form of dextromethorphan with a special dose-measuring spoon or cup, not a regular table spoon. Allow the dextromethorphan lozenge or disintegrating strip to dissolve in your mouth. Drink extra fluids to help loosen the congestion and lubricate your throat while you are taking this medication. Do not drive or use machines while taking this medicine until you are sure you are not affected. Do not drink alcohol (wine, beer, spirits)whilst taking this medicine. Alcohol increases the risk of side effects occurring and may make you feel drowsier. Always ask a doctor before giving cough or cold medicine to a child. Death can occur from the misuse of cough or cold medicine in very young children.
