It tastes absolutely horrible but definitely works better than the other stuff. If you can choke it down, you will feel better in about 1 hour. You just have to get past the taste.

It's a NO for me.
It does its job but I will say this flavor is not the best. It’s pretty awful. 🤢 I have to pinch my nose just to swallow it! Next time, I’ll stick to the regular DayQuil/nyquil.

Not for me
Didn't like the taste, maybe I should try another flavor/take the gel capsules.

Gross
I was feeling terrible, and the taste of this put me over the edge. Not sure which focus group said this “tasted great”, but they lied. Wasted my money because I have to trash the remaining.

Stay away from this - causes diarrhea
While it tastes horrible, it did suppress the coughing to some extent. However, if you have a sensitive digestive system, I would strongly recommend you stay as far away as possible from this. It gave me extremely watery diarrhea to the point that it caused hypoglycemia multiple times. I took one dose of NyQuil at bedtime and still didn’t recover 12 hours later. Just imagine having to shoot out water from your behind while you’re covered in cold sweat, your visions blurry and dim, you’re shivering and about to pass out any second IN ADDITION to your already severe fever, coughs, and muscle aches. Don’t do this to yourself.

Just Buy the Regular Flavor
It’s insane how awful this stuff tastes. Do yourself a favor and just get the regular flavor, this is not good whatsoever. Only giving 2 stars because it does work the same as the normal NyQuil/DayQuil pack

Works so well
This product works really well to quell coughs and unstuff the nose. The nighttime one knocks me out and I sleep really well. It's great. The taste is a ***very strong*** honey flavor. Might not be everyone's cup of tea. My kids don't like the taste, but I don't mind it.

Works great
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been sick a lot of times this winter and the only thing that has worked is Vicks-DayQuil™ and NyQuil™ SEVERE Honey Cold and Flu Relief Liquid. It works really great. I take it as soon as I feel like I’m getting sick. The combo pack is really good and the size is perfect. The NyQuil makes you very sleepy and you get complete rest at night. My friend felt little sick at my house and she took this and she has been so happy too and got the combo pack for herself. I recommend this to everyone.
