Either way I cold use some cold medication, any recommendations?
Some cold medications contain Dextromethorphan in them..I believe that the Sudafed cold gell caps have DM in them..You have to check the ingredients of all cold medications for DM..I take a therapudic dose of DM in hopes of neuro protection, and I check all cold meds for DM as to not interfere with the recommended therapudic neuro protective daily DM dosage

I dont know what to say about DM and Azelict except that if DM use is not recommended while taking Azelict, then you probably shouldnt use it, especially when you take into consideration that you are taking DM to treat cold symptoms, which requires higher, but recommended doses, as opposed to much lower neuro protective recommended doses
