Q: Is this DM medicine

submitted by Peaches - 15 days ago
  • A: Thank you for your interest in Mucinex® Fast-Max® Cold, Flu & Sore Throat. This product does contain dextromethorphan.

Q: is this non-drowsy and suitable for day use?

submitted by Cat - 2 years ago
  • A: Thank you for your question. Mucinex® Fast-Max® Cold, Flu, & Sore Throat 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. We recommend that you consult with your Doctor to ensure this product is right for you and your needs.

THE CURE

Mel - 4 months ago, Verified purchaser
This right here… this right here will cure your cold in 1 day or help reduce your symptoms significantly!!! I took this in combination with Tylenol cold+flu pills & the zicam nasal spray. AND WOW. I felt WAY better next day. No more post nasal drip, stuffy nose, sore throat or cough. This is the same thing as every other mucinex fast max.. it’s just marketed and priced differently. They all have the same ingredients.. definitely start taking this the immediate moment you start to feel a tickle in your throat.

D - 8 months ago, Verified purchaser
I don’t have a problem with the taste, I think at some point in life adults have to get past unpleasant taste so the reviews whining about flavor I didn’t consider when buying this. I will say though that this did absolutely NOTHING. The amount of doses you get for $13 is a scam in my opinion for the fact that it barely got me into a second week. It was filled halfway through the container and btw the ingredients in mucinex the FDA reviewed after a 2 day study showing that mucinex doesn’t have quality ingredients enough to help a cold. SAVE YOUR MONEY. I’m surprised it’s still on the shelf after looking up why the medicine was a dud.

I usually don’t buy mucinex because it’s a bit more costly than other brands that I feel are just as effective. I decided to try the fast-max cold and flu because I still had some mucus/chest congestion trouble after getting sick about a month ago. Took this for 3 days and gradually got worse now I’m still dealing with the mucus/chest congestion but have also developed chest, sinus/nasal congestion, runny nose and cough. I was expecting to get of rid of one symptom end up developing almost every symptom on the bottle it says it treats.

I have been feeling sick for over a week and nothing was really helping. I took this and it instantly got rid of my sore throat. I’m already feeling so much better and it’s been less than 24 hours of taking this medicine. I’ll keep on hand for sure!

The product works fine but maybe print dosage and ingredients in the first layer of the back label instead of having to peel 2 layers of label to get to the most relevant information.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have to recommend Mucinex Fast-Max, the results are incredible and fast. My son had a cough, runny nose, irritated eyes, congestion and a slight fever. He took Mucinex and can see how he completely recovered and returned to his daily routine.

It helps thin out mucus but I can’t attest whether it’s good for anything else. Immediately after taking it I got a really bad headache and became extremely nauseous. For a second I thought I bought the drowsy version
