Works for both allergies or a regular cold
Definitely worth buying in the mixed seasons! I’m that person that I don’t know if my body is sick because of allergies or a common cold. This mucinex just expels mucus. It’s not specifically for allergies or a cold and can be used if you’re just feeling congested. Doesn’t make you drowsy or sleepy. Just drink a lot of water! Will be getting more to have when i get sick again. Plus I used at least half the pack when I wasn’t feeling well and have some leftover for next time.

I did not have a good experience with this medicine. After the first five minutes I experienced nausea and a bit of dizziness. I will have to go back to my doctor’s office to see what else can be taken instead of this because my system doesn’t like this for some reason.

Great when you have a cold
I like to have this on hand in my medicine cabinet for when I get a cold. It helps the mucous expel itself from your body which can help prevent infections. It is part of my regular routine now when I am sick.

Definately worth buying
Great results! Totally calmed the excessive coughing to just every now and then (but still allows productive removal of mucus from lungs). Why didn’t I know about this product weeks ago? Finally able to sleep and heal.

Best cough relief
This really helped me get rid of my COVID cough. It helped a lot within a day and got rid of it completely in about 3-4 days. I’ll never go back to cough syrup. This lasts all night so no waking up to do more cough syrup. This was recommended by my doctor when I asked for something stronger. Best advice ever!

Great Product
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this product to get rid of a small amount of congestion I was experiencing and I will say it helped tremendously! I would highly recommend this product for an at home solution for common colds and congestion that can occur throughout the winter months.

The only medicine to clear stuffiness
Allergies, colds, really any chest congestion I reach for this medication. It seems to last the full 12 hours and it doesn’t make you jittery or drowsy.

Great product
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I brought this 12 hour extended release chest congestion expectorant mucinex tablets 80 count and on the first day my chest felt much better. My chest didn't feel all congested and it loosened all the mucus in my airway . The muffin ex tablet last all day so you only need one tablet every 12 hours. No more having to take something every 4 hours. I'm breathing so much better.

It does the truck
This is a Value Pack of MUCINEX Tablets. There are two Forty Count Boxes inside for a total of one Eighty Count Box. I love that the Tablets are packaged super easy to push out of the foil container. I often struggle with packaging so it makes a huge difference when I can easily access the product. These MUCINEX TABLETS are Extended Release Bi-Layer TABLETS. I have no problem with the size of the tablet. I like that they are extended release so I do not have to take them as often. The instructions on these tablets are One to Two tablets every Twelve Hours for Adults. With no more than Four Tablets in a Twenty Four Hour Period. I have used the MUCINEX Brand in the past and have found it to be reliable.
