I've been prescribed Benzonatate 200mg Capsules for a persistent cough, and I'm a bit nervous about the potential side effects. The packaging lists some serious warnings, including allergic reactions and even hallucinations. I've never had to take anything this strong before. Has anyone else had experience with this drug? What was it like? Were the side effects manageable, or did you have to stop taking it because of the severity? Any anecdotes or advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.
