Does anyone know if you can take benylin when you've had chemo (paclitaxel/carboplatin) Friday just gone. This cough is driving me mad!

I don't know the answer to that. You're very good to consider it...I think I would have just blindly taken it without even thinking .You could try phoning your CNS or the hospital pharmacy for clarification.

And just a thought...do you have a temperature at all ? You might want to keep an eye out for that and let your team know if you do.

Hope the cough settles very soon..it can be exhausting.

I don't the answer either but Bronchostop is another good cough medicine and is based on Thyme. I think if you go into a chemist and speak to the pharmacist they will help you.
