It's not worth it. Got it for my kid thinking it'd taste better than the usual cough syrup. To my surprise she started requesting the cough syrup instead because apparently the gummies tasted awful. I tried one just to see and yeah, they're pretty bad. What a disappointment.

Horrible, nasty tasting gummies
Taste absolutely horrible. Choking down nasty liquid cough medicine is bad but chewing a cough medicine tasting gummy is even worse. Yuck!

Awful taste
Okay so when I gave one of these to my kid I thought they were being dramatic about the taste. Fast forward to a month later. I am sick and decided to try one to see if it would help my cough. The adult mucinex products tear up my stomach. Well let me tell you, my kid was 100000% not being dramatic. These tasted so awful. I could not even get through a single bite. I would rather cough all night than eat one of these things.

Disappointed
I was SO excited for the gummy option since my kids won’t take the liquid that tastes horrible but unfortunately, these gummies taste bad too and they are huge. I couldn’t get my kid to keep it down. I wish the Mucinex formula could be adjusted a bit - no fault of Target.

Great Taste
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The texture of this was perfect for my daughter. She loved the taste and it didn’t make her gag like other pills. Mucinex outdid their self with this product!

Great Taste
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Loved this for my kids. It worked well especially for my youngest who has issues with flavors of all meds. No side effects were experienced at all and no bad aftertaste. I could purchase this over and over again.

Sugary RX
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product would have been better if they weren’t so sugary. My kids loved them but I did not. I’m a fan of Mucinex though. Hoping they come out with a cleaner version.

Sugary medicine
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids never got to use this product. I didn’t like that it’s sugar coated. I’m sure it would work if we used them. I’m a big fan of mucinex. Hoping they come out with a healthier product.

So gross
I tried giving these to my daughter and niece and after they each took a tiny bite they threw a big fit about how bad they tasted and they refused to even finish one gummy. I thought they were exaggerating, so when I got sick I decided to try them and they were right! These tasted like normal medicine just in a gummy form that you have to chew and taste for so much longer. I assumed they would have at least made them taste good! I might just throw these away as I don’t think anyone will want to suffer through chewing these, yuck!

Taste amazing
I don’t know why there are so many reviews about the taste and texture. I thought it was delicious…like candy and the texture was great too. My kid asked for more lol. Not sure if they changed the formula recently but taste wise these are really good.

Horrible, don’t buy!
I bought the daytime chews and they are horrible! They are very sugary to chew and taste just like the liquid medicine. My eight year old and I both couldn’t finish one of the chews.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I started giving these to my daughter when she show a dry caugh without thinking that it would help her a lot because it was a gummy to my surprise. She was fine for a few hours until she needed a new dose.

Good stuff
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was good! It was easy to take and tasty. The smell, the packaging, and it worked. Kids like things that have good taste. Kiss tho k because its chewy its candy so its better than having to take the syrups.

Torture for a sick child
My daughter hated the taste and so I let her stop taking them after two attempts. I tried one and also could barely chew it to take it. Disgusting.

Nope 👎
I bought these on 4/15/25 because my daughter has been coughing and she doesn't like liquid medicines. She chewed this and said it tasted horrible. I chewed some tonight 4/16/25 and wow.... she was not wrong... the taste is soo bad it's like your chewing the liquid in your mouth in solid gummy form. I am definitely not happy about this purchase.

Life saver
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Mucinex Nighttime Children’s Mighty Chews in mixed berry flavor work great when my kid is dealing with a stubborn cough and congestion. They actually like the taste, which is a huge plus. It helps them sleep through the night without constant coughing, and I wake up with a much happier kid in the morning. Definitely recommend for bedtime relief!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] They are effective but they taste awful. I can’t imagine them being easy to give to any child let alone one that isn’t feeling well. I think it’s a great concept
