Hi doctor, I am having a problem with sinusitis. My doctor ordered me to take Co Altria 10 mg at bedtime. I have taken it at 9 PM and currently, I am experiencing dryness of mouth and headache. What to do? Is this serious? I am also taking Cefixime 200 mg twice daily, Sinupret thrice daily, and Nasoflo spray.
Hello. Dryness of mouth might be due to mild anticholinergic effects. It may sometime cause drowsiness and also depends on person to person. This would take a few days to adjust. You can continue this drug along with steam inhalation twice daily.
