Post by: einsteindude on Dec 1, 2014
If you saw the label "phenylephrine HCl" on a decongestant, would you worry that consuming it would expose you to the strong acid hydrochloric acid, HCl?

 

A) No, because it is balanced by the phenylephrine.
B) No, because the drug is in the solid phase.
C) No, because this is a salt made using hydrogen chloride, but it is in no way hydrogen chloride.
D) Yes, because of the hydrochloric acid it contains.
