Hi, I want to discuss the problem of my younger brother, who is 33 years old. He z suffering from very serious problem from 4-5 yrs. He didn't share his problem with anyone but he  thinks everyday, to get rid from that. I came to know about this in last year, when some guy frm his college office calls me, where he works as lecturer frm 4-5 yrs. He told me that your brother is addicted to drugs in Cough Syrup form (COREX) - which contains  [chlorpheniramine MALEATE AND CODEINE PHOSPHATE] daily 2-3 bottles of {100 ML} from 3-4 yrs. I get very much worried tht he is wasting all things his life, his health, money and does not interact with anyone, and always sleep in full day and wake up on every night. His body always keep on sweating and every time his hands starts shivering, and feels embarrassment frm thz situation ,specially when some one points him. He was brilliant in studies, but now days he has loose his all confidence and get lost in his mind only and start thinking that, every one makes fun of him and get conscious every time, to overcome this  thing, he starts ignoring every one and starts living alone. Everyday I make him realize tht he z spoiling his life, his wife and his small daughter life which is just 3 yrs. Old. Every day he promise me tht frm now he will leave thz habit completely. But I guess due to addiction frm many yrs. He can't leave now, if he wants thn also, even he knows the results, but he z unable to leave thz even ,for one day also. He z spoiling his full family life. So, can you help me out for making his life frm meaning less to meaning full for his life. Is there is any cure (medicine) which (by not telling him) about treatment, so that he totally turns his face from that. I am really worried for him. As he is good guy and my only brother. Waiting for your answer  eagerly till he gets well. Thanks.

The effect of sleeping all day is due to codeine which is a sedative. Even Chlorpheniramine is sedating. Cough syrup addiction is a common outlet for depressed college students who did not have means of getting hard drugs.
I notice that you are a doctor. I am surprised that you did not notice the behavioural changes. Drug addiction is usually a result of psychiatric illness. Instead of consulting a professional due to stigma, they tend to go for whichever is accessible to relieve their depre...more

First use Throat Lozenges like Vicks, Drink warm tea, or Gargle with warm salt water.
If it doesn't help, you may take Tab. CPM 2 mg twice a day for 3 days.

Hi
please take grillinctus cough syrup 2-3 times daily. Chest pain may be because of the muscle strain while coughing. However if the pain still persistes get a chest x ray and an ecg done or visit a physician if needed. Hope this gives you relief.

Dear Ms. lybrate-user
lupituss is a syrup that works on the brain to control your cough. Any medication that works in this manner can cause drowsiness and tiredness. Monticope is a combination of an antihistamine and montelukast. Antihistamines may cause sleepiness in upto 30% of patients even though they are claimed to be non sedating. If her cough has subsided, it would be a good idea to stop these medicines and that may be enough to stop her symptoms.
Best wishes.

Your knee is probably stiff.
Also the loss of strength might be due to inferior ligament quality, this may need clinical assessment.
You can try CPM machine to relieve stiffness. Continue static Quadriceps Exercises regularly to strengthen Quadriceps Exercises. If you still encounter instability, you may need revision surgery to get back to high end sports activities.
