    Why is this medication prescribed?
    Promethazine is used to relieve the symptoms of allergic reactions such as allergic rhinitis (runny nose and watery eyes caused by allergy to pollen, mold or dust), allergic conjunctivitis (red, watery eyes caused by allergies), allergic skin reactions, and allergic reactions to blood or plasma products.
    Promethazine is used with other medications to treat anaphylaxis (sudden, severe allergic reactions) and the symptoms of the common cold such as sneezing, cough, and runny nose.
    Promethazine is also used to relax and sedate patients before and after surgery, during labor, and at other times.
    Promethazine is also used to prevent and control nausea and vomiting that may occur after surgery, and with other medications to help relieve pain after surgery.
    Promethazine is also used to prevent and treat motion sickness.
    Promethazine helps control symptoms, but will not treat the cause of the symptoms or speed recovery.
    Promethazine is in a class of medications called phenothiazines. It works by blocking the action of a certain natural substance in the body.
    How should this medicine be used?
    Promethazine comes as a tablet and syrup (liquid) to take by mouth and as a suppository to use rectally.
    When promethazine is used to treat allergies, it is usually taken one to four times daily, before meals or at bedtime.
    When promethazine is used to relieve cold symptoms, it is usually taken every 4 to 6 hours as needed.
    When promethazine is used to treat or prevent nausea and vomiting it is usually taken every 4 to 6 hours as needed.
    Promethazine may also be taken at bedtime the night before surgery to relieve anxiety and produce quiet sleep.
    Promethazine suppositories are for rectal use only. Do not try to swallow the suppositories or insert in any other part of your body.
    If you are taking promethazine liquid, do not use a household spoon to measure your dose.
    Use the measuring spoon or cup that came with the medication or use a spoon made especially for measuring medication.
    What special precautions should I follow?
    Before taking promethazine:
    tell your doctor and pharmacist if you are allergic to promethazine, other phenothiazines (certain medications used to treat mental illness, nausea, vomiting, severe hiccups, and other conditions) or any other medications. Also tell your doctor and pharmacist if you have ever had an unusual or unexpected reaction when you took promethazine, another phenothiazine, or any other medication. Ask your doctor or pharmacist if you do not know if a medication you are allergic to is a phenothiazine.
    tell your doctor and pharmacist what prescription and nonprescription medications, vitamins, nutritional supplements and herbal products you are taking or plan to take.
    tell your doctor if you are pregnant, plan to become pregnant, or are breast-feeding.
    If you become pregnant while taking promethazine, call your doctor.
    talk to your doctor about the risks and benefits of taking promethazine if you are 65 years of age or older. Older adults should not usually take promethazine because it is not as safe as other medications that can be used to treat the same conditions.
    if you are having surgery, including dental surgery, tell the doctor or dentist that you are taking promethazine.
