Bromfed

Pronunciation: brome-fen-EER-ah-meen/soo-doe-eh-FED-rin
Generic Name: Brompheniramine/Pseudoephedrine
Brand Name: Examples include Bromfed and Lodrane D

Bromfed is used for:

Relieving symptoms of sinus congestion, pressure, runny nose, and sneezing due to colds, upper respiratory infections, and allergies. It may also be used for other conditions as determined by your doctor.

Bromfed is an antihistamine and decongestant combination. The antihistamine works by blocking the action of histamine, which helps reduce symptoms such as watery eyes and sneezing. The decongestant promotes sinus and nasal drainage, which relieves congestion and pressure.

Do NOT use Bromfed if:

• you are allergic to any ingredient in Bromfed


• you have severe high blood pressure, severe heart blood vessel disease, rapid heartbeat, or severe heart problems


• you take sodium oxybate (GHB) or if you have taken furazolidone or a monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitor (eg, phenelzine) within the last 14 days

Contact your doctor or health care provider right away if any of these apply to you.

Before using Bromfed:

Some medical conditions may interact with Bromfed. Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you have any medical conditions, especially if any of the following apply to you:

• if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or are breast-feeding


• if you are taking any prescription or nonprescription medicine, herbal preparation, or dietary supplement


• if you have allergies to medicines, foods, or other substances


• if you have a fast, slow, or irregular heartbeat; heart blood vessel problems; or other heart problems


• if you have a history of asthma; lung problems (eg, emphysema); adrenal gland problems (eg, adrenal gland tumor); high blood pressure; diabetes; stroke; glaucoma; a blockage of your stomach, bladder, or intestines; ulcers; trouble urinating; an enlarged prostate; seizures; or an overactive thyroid

Some MEDICINES MAY INTERACT with Bromfed. Tell your health care provider if you are taking any other medicines, especially any of the following:

• Beta-blockers (eg, propranolol), COMT inhibitors (eg, tolcapone), furazolidone, indomethacin, MAO inhibitors (eg, phenelzine), sodium oxybate (GHB), or tricyclic antidepressants (eg, amitriptyline) because side effects of Bromfed may be increased


• Digoxin or droxidopa because the risk of irregular heartbeat or heart attack may be increased


• Bromocriptine or hydantoins (eg, phenytoin) because side effects may be increased by Bromfed


• Guanadrel, guanethidine, methyldopa, mecamylamine, or reserpine because effectiveness may be decreased by Bromfed
