NO do not take this without asking your doctor and heres some more info! Before using NyQuil Liquid:
Some medical conditions may interact with NyQuil Liquid. Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you have any medical conditions, especially if any of the following apply to you:

I would say No. I went to bed with bad sore throat lots of mucous coughing,took nyquil. The next moring I was so sleepy, had a hard time waking up 1pm , draged my self out of bed went to Dr thinking I'm sure I have a sinus infection. Now the back of neck is hurting at the base of the skull, and my forehead. the Nurse takes my blood pressure its 200/90, she says its the cuff its broke, she goes and comes back to do it 4 more times. From 1:30 to 5: it drops 10 points. No one seems very concerned. I'm thinking I could have had a stroke, if it went higher. Soon as I returened home I took blood pressure pills. This makes me think I should not take Nyquil. What do you think?

As of now I'd say no. But only because we know so little about your situation, and with such little information we'd never be able to say one way or another correctly. You should check with your doctor about taking Nyquil with your situation. On paper it may not look so bad, but your situation may not warrant its use.
