I bought this product just a few days ago due to having a major chest cold. I felt relief in a matter of hours. I am a very skeptical person and this product truly is helping me, thank you!

Too big for me
Too big. I called Target, and I could return them. Therefore I bought the Mucinec 600mg because these pills are smaller. The 1200mg are too big for me, and you are not supposed to crush them.

Very large pill
These were too large for me to swallow. They start dissolving almost immediately and left an awful taste on my tongue. I tried multiple times, but it would not work for me. I will have to try to the regular ones which are half the size. Wish I would have known how big they were before hand, rather than waste money.

Works too well
Great product as long as you’re okay with not breathing. Loosened mucus to the point that I was completely congested and could not breathe out my nose. Had to take a different product TJ counteract this one. 0/10

Thins mucus excellently, that it
This is the single best product to deal with chest congestion on the market. It doesn’t make your cold go away, it doesn’t suppress coughs, it doesn’t make body aches go away. Just make sure you know what you are trying to treat before you buy it.

Trash! Waste of money. Didn't work at all to eliminate mucus build up. Took it 3 days straight! Absolutely no change.

Expect to cough
Did not seem to suppress cough, if anything I ended up coughing more frequently and intensely.

One and done for 12 hours
Works well to break up congestion and get mucus out of your lungs and nose. Worked better for me than taking a decongestant. I also like that I only have to take one every 12 hours

Mucinex Max Strength
Having asthma, I get sick a lot. Mucinex helps clear mucous from your respiratory tract (nose, sinuses, lungs). Even though it's expensive, it's the best medicine when you're sick. Highly recommend.

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.

It simply did not work.
I had such high expectations! I had the classic cold, started taking this Monday, it is now Thursday. I am really surprised. It comes highly recommended. Just wondering if I got a bad batch?
