What Causes Dry Cough After Taking Namenda?
I have been taking Namenda for about five weeks and have developed a hacking, dry cough. I am convinced it is the drug but do not want to discontinue abruptly. I currently am taking 28 mg per day. My doctor is notavailable because of the weekend. Can you help me?
