What is a generic medication?
Generic medications are significantly discounted copies of brand name medication that have the same active ingredients, intended use, dosage, side effects, effects, and route of administration as the original brand name medication. In other words, generic medications have the same pharmacological effects as their brand-name counterparts. Over half of all prescribed medications are for generic medications.

Tessalon Overview
Tessalon is used to treat coughs caused by the common cold and other breathing problems (such as pneumonia, bronchitis, emphysema, asthma). It works by reducing the reflex in the lungs that causes the urge to cough. Use of Tessalon is not recommended in children younger than 10 years. Discuss the risks and benefits with your doctor.
How to Use Tessalon
Take Tessalon by mouth with or without food, usually 3 times daily as needed or as directed by your doctor. Swallow Tessalon whole. Do not chew, suck, or dissolve Tessalon in your mouth. Doing so will cause a loss of feeling in your mouth/throat and may cause choking or a severe allergic reaction. (See also Side Effects section.) Do not eat or drink until the numbness goes away. Get medical help right away if the numbness lasts or gets worse. Dosage of Tessalon is based on your medical condition and response to therapy. Do not take more than 200 milligrams at one time. Taking more benzonatate than prescribed will not make your cough go away faster but may result in serious side effects. Tell your doctor if your condition lasts or gets worse.
Tessalon Precautions
