This medication should never be shared with another person, especially someone who has a history of drug abuse or addiction. Keep the medication in a secure place where others cannot get to it.

If you have certain conditions, you may need a dose adjustment or special tests to safely take this medication. Before taking chlorpheniramine, guaifenesin, hydrocodone, and pseudoephedrine, tell your doctor if you are allergic to any drugs, or if you have:

heart disease or high blood pressure;
asthma, COPD, sleep apnea, or other breathing disorders;
diabetes;
glaucoma;
a thyroid disorder;
epilepsy or other seizure disorder;
kidney or liver disease;
enlarged prostate or urination problems;
a stomach or intestinal disorder;
a history of head injury or brain tumor;
Addison’s disease or other adrenal gland disorders; or
a history of drug or alcohol addiction.

FDA pregnancy category C. Hydrocodone may be harmful to an unborn baby, and could cause addiction or withdrawal symptoms in a newborn. Tell your doctor if you are pregnant or plan to become pregnant during treatment. This medication may pass into breast milk and could harm a nursing baby. Do not use this medication without telling your doctor if you are breast-feeding a baby. Hydrocodone may be habit-forming and should be used only by the person it was prescribed for. Hydrocodone should never be shared with another person, especially someone who has a history of drug abuse or addiction. Keep the medication in a secure place where others cannot get to it. Hydrocodone is a drug of abuse and you should be aware if any person in the household is using this medicine improperly or without a prescription. Older adults may be more likely to have side effects from this medication.

How should I take chlorpheniramine, guaifenesin, hydrocodone, and pseudoephedrine?

Take this medication exactly as it was prescribed for you. Do not take the medication in larger amounts, or take it for longer than recommended by your doctor. Follow the directions on your prescription label. Cough or cold medicine is usually taken for only a short time until your symptoms clear up.

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. Chlorpheniramine, guaifenesin, hydrocodone, and pseudoephedrine should not be given to a child younger than 6 years old. Take this medication with food or milk if it upsets your stomach.

Measure the liquid form of this medicine with a special dose-measuring spoon or cup, not a regular table spoon. If you do not have a dose-measuring device, ask your pharmacist for one.

This medication can cause you to have unusual results with allergy skin tests. Tell any doctor who treats you that you are taking an antihistamine.

Store this medicine at room temperature, away from heat, light, and moisture. Keep track of how much of this medicine has been used from each new bottle. Hydrocodone is a drug of abuse and you should be aware if any person in the household is using this medicine improperly or without a prescription.

What happens if I miss a dose?

Since cough or cold medicine is usually taken only as needed, you may not be on a dosing schedule. If you are taking the medication regularly, take the missed dose as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and take the medicine at your next regularly scheduled time. Do not take extra medicine to make up the missed dose.

What happens if I overdose?

Seek emergency medical attention if you think you have used too much of this medicine. An overdose of hydrocodone can be fatal.

Overdose symptoms may include fast or uneven heart rate, extreme drowsiness, feeling restless or hyperactive, confusion, hallucinations, warmth or redness in your face, cold or clammy skin, blue-colored lips or fingernails, weak or shallow breathing, fainting, or seizure (convulsions).

What should I avoid while taking chlorpheniramine, guaifenesin, hydrocodone, and pseudoephedrine?

This medication can cause side effects that may impair your thinking or reactions. Be careful if you drive or do anything that requires you to be awake and alert. Do not drink alcohol while you are taking this medication. Alcohol can increase some of the side effects of chlorpheniramine, guaifenesin, or hydrocodone. Do not use any other over-the-counter cough, cold, allergy, or sleep medication without first asking your doctor or pharmacist. If you take certain products together you may accidentally take too much of one or more types of medicine.

Xyralid

30/06/10

Generic Name: hydrocortisone and lidocaine topical (HYE droe KOR ti sone and LYE doe kane TOP ik al)
Brand Names: Xyralid

What is Xyralid (hydrocortisone and lidocaine topical)?

Hydrocortisone is a topical (for the skin) steroid. It reduces the actions of chemicals in the body that cause inflammation, redness, and swelling.

Lidocaine is a local anesthetic (numbing medication). It works by blocking nerve signals in your body.

Hydrocortisone and lidocaine topical is used to treat itching and inflammation of the skin caused by a number of conditions such as allergic reactions, eczema, psoriasis, minor burns, or insect bites.

Hydrocortisone and lidocaine topical may also be used for other purposes not listed in this medication guide.

What is the most important information I should know about Xyralid (hydrocortisone and lidocaine topical)?

Do not cover treated skin areas with a bandage or other covering unless your doctor has told you to. Covering the skin that is treated with hydrocortisone and lidocaine topical can increase the amount of the drug your skin absorbs, which may lead to unwanted side effects. Follow your doctor’s instructions.

Your body may absorb more of this medication if you use too much, if you apply it over large skin areas, or if you apply heat, bandages, or plastic wrap to treated skin areas. Skin that is cut or irritated may also absorb more topical medication than healthy skin.

Xyralid RC

30/06/10

Generic Name: hydrocortisone and lidocaine topical with psyllium (HYE droe KORT i sone, LYE doe kane TOP ik al, SIL ee um)
Brand Names: Xyralid RC

What is Xyralid RC (hydrocortisone and lidocaine topical with psyllium)?

Hydrocortisone is a steroid. It reduces the actions of chemicals in the body that cause inflammation, redness, and itching.

Lidocaine is a local anesthetic (numbing medication). It works by blocking nerve signals in your body.

Psyllium is a type of soluble fiber used as a bulk-forming stool softener. Psyllium is not a laxative.

The combination of hydrocortisone and lidocaine topical (for the skin) is used to relieve itching, pain or other discomforts caused by conditions such as hemorrhoids or anal fissures (tiny tears in the tissues surrounding the anus). Psyllium is provided as a medication you take by mouth to help soften your stools, making them easier and less painful to pass while your rectal condition is being treated.

Hydrocortisone and lidocaine topical may also be used for other purposes not listed in this medication guide.

What is the most important information I should know about Xyralid RC (hydrocortisone and lidocaine topical with psyllium)?

You should not use this medication if you are allergic to hydrocortisone, lidocaine (or any other type of numbing medicine), or psyllium, or if you have severe liver disease, a fungal infection, smallpox, chickenpox, herpes, or tuberculosis.

Before using hydrocortisone and lidocaine topical with psyllium, tell your doctor if you have liver or kidney disease, a heart rhythm problem, congestive heart failure, stomach or intestinal conditions, diabetes, or any type of infection.

Do not take hydrocortisone rectal by mouth. It is for use only in your rectum. Do not cover the treated rectal areas with a bandage, plastic pants or other covering unless your doctor has told you to. Covering the skin that is treated with hydrocortisone and lidocaine topical can increase the amount of the drug your skin absorbs, which may lead to unwanted side effects. Your body may also absorb more of this medication if you use too much. Contact your doctor if your condition does not improve or if it gets worse after using this medication. Do not use this medication in a child without a doctor’s advice. Children are more sensitive to the effects of hydrocortisone and lidocaine topical.

What should I discuss with my healthcare provider before using Xyralid RC (hydrocortisone and lidocaine topical with psyllium)?

You should not use this medication if you are allergic to hydrocortisone, lidocaine, or psyllium, or if you have:

severe liver disease;
a fungal infection;
herpes;
smallpox or chickenpox; or
tuberculosis.

If you have certain conditions, you may need a dose adjustment or special tests to safely use this medication. Before using hydrocortisone and lidocaine topical with psyllium, tell your doctor if you have liver disease or a heart rhythm problem.

liver disease;
kidney disease;
a heart rhythm problem;
congestive heart failure;

any type of infection.

Also tell your doctor if you have diabetes. Steroid medicines may increase the glucose (sugar) levels in your blood or urine. You may also need to adjust the dose of your diabetes medications.

Tell your doctor if you are pregnant or plan to become pregnant during treatment. It is not known whether hydrocortisone and lidocaine topical with psyllium passes into breast milk or if it could harm a nursing baby.

Peel off the seal under the tube cap and screw the applicator tip firmly onto the tube. Squeeze the tube to push the medication into the applicator. With the tube still attached to the applicator, insert only the tip of the applicator into the rectum. Continue squeezing the tube to apply the medicine. Also apply to the outer areas of the anus.

Do not insert the applicator deep into the rectum. Use only applicators that come with this medication, and throw each one away after one use.
