Tylenol can do wonders for alleviating mild aches and pains. How does it measure up against other common pain relievers?
Meclizine has low bioavailability (22–32%) and a delayed onset to action in part due to its poor solubility in water (0.1 mg/ml) and gastrointestinal fluid. [1] In children it has been found that taking meclizine with food increases its bioavailability slightly. [24] It is metabolized in the liver by the CYP2D6 enzyme. [2]

Doses of hydroxyzine hydrochloride used for sleep range from 25 to 100 mg. [15] [16] [17] As with other antihistamine sleep aids, hydroxyzine is usually only prescribed for short term or "as-needed" use since tolerance to the CNS (central nervous system) effects of hydroxyzine can develop in as little as a few days.
Single 20 to 40 mg oral doses generally give rise to peak plasma esomeprazole concentrations of 0.5-1.0 mg/L within 1–4 hours, but after several days of once-daily administration, these levels may increase by about 50%. A 30-minute intravenous infusion of a similar dose usually produces peak plasma levels on the order of 1–3 mg/L. The drug ...
Guaifenesin might act as an expectorant by increasing the volume and reducing the viscosity of secretions in the trachea and bronchi via stimulation of the gastric mucosa. . This stimulation leads to an increased parasympathetic activity in the respiratory tract via the so-called gastro-pulmonary reflex, although some in vitro studies suggested that it might also act directly on the ...
