Q: Is this medicine non drowsy?

submitted by Alicia - 2 years ago

  • A: Hi Alicia. Thank you for your question. Mucinex® Children's Multi-Symptom Cold liquid contains guaifenesin, dextromethorphan, and phenylephrine. Guaifenesin is not known to cause drowsiness. The active ingredient dextromethorphan has been shown to produce drowsiness in some patients. Phenylephrine is known to be a stimulant which can be considered non-drowsy. These three ingredients together cannot be considered non-drowsy due to the inclusion of dextromethorphan. Hope this helps.

    They need more flavor options!

    This is the only medicine that seems to work on my son when he has a cold and a cough but he hates the taste! That’s why I gave it four stars. He has to drink orange juice right after to get rid of the taste.

    Helps relieve cough and congestion

    It does taste bad, but it works. It has really been helping my daughter’s cough and congestion. We make sure to have water or juice right there when she takes it, and that helps. We have this in the medicine cabinet at all times!

    Doesn't work and horrid taste

    Did absolutely nothing. Brought no relief. Did not do anything that it claimed it would. Definitely did not help with a stuffy/runny nose. And the taste is absolutely horrid. Child would not take again- absolutely refused. Said it's the worst taste of anything they've ever had. Trust me, the negative reviews are legit. I wish I didnt buy it.

    HORRIBLE

    I am honestly so upset. I was very hopeful since this is for four and not that it would help my toddler. It literally does not help whatsoever if anything it makes him worse. And it’s for every four hours so waking him up in the middle of the night to give him more is horrible. I would absolutely never buy this again.

    Disgusting taste

    I thought my daughter was being dramatic when she spit this out and said it was disgusting. So when I got sick, I figured I’d use it up and not waste it. I almost gagged! It does not taste like berries at all. I can’t even describe the taste but it’s worse than any alcohol I’ve ever drank. It’s going straight in the trash. I don’t know how this is still on the shelves.

    Shopped for store pick up. Services at this target, McArthur, have gone down. They pack the wrong item and aren’t very helpful about it despite it being an error in their part. Make sure to check items before you leave the store.

    Love this stuff!

    My son wouldn’t stop coughing and once this kicks in, it works! Coughing eased/stopped and he was able to sleep through the night. He doesn’t seem to be fond of the taste, but we give it slowly and chase it with candy or a fruity drink. Will be sure to make sure we have this on hand in our medicine cabinet.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is great for my kids. I always use it when they become sick. They say it’s really tasty and doesn’t taste like poop. It’s not expensive either compared to most brands.
