During the 20+ years I have coped with fibromyalgia I came across a great many strategies for doing so. One was Paul St. Armand and guaifenesin. He claims it is perfectly safe. I would disagree. In terms of Oriental Medicine it dries the Yin. In layman's terms it dries the taker out because it thins the body fluids so the deposits can be excreted (along with some of the fluids). If I had known then when I know now I never would have used it. For women, who tend to be Yin deficient anyway because we bleed each month, it just makes us drier... something we fight constantly after menopause. So please, if you are considering taking guaifenesin do your research and talk to others who took it and stopped. I have never met anyone who said, "guaifenesin, I'm so glad I found it." My two cents... PT
