Works just like the packages says.
This truly worked for me. Had flu like symptoms, mainly painful cough and bronchial congestion. Literally within minutes it started easing up and continued feeling better for hours.

Works well but too BIG
Good product and works well but as Horrific stated, IT'S TOO BIG! My husband is 84 and has great difficulty swelling your monster pill. Why can't it be made two pills like many other needing to be large doses in pill form separated into two?

Side Effects
Works WELL . HOWEVER. I always have a nasty side effect of sulfur smelling urine. So much so, that I won't take this medicine if I know I'm going to be around people.

Do not drive after taking this medication
This product is great, it works but made me drowsy and sleepy. No where on the box does it mention drowsy.

Cough relief, finally!
I had been coughing for a month, taking various meds when a pharmacist recommended this. I noticed my cough subside immediately. It wasn’t gone and returned a few hours later but I kept up on taking this and it worked.

Works!!
I was a little worried after reading reviews that that would make me feel weird or not work. Luckily, it was not the case!! I had a really bad case of coughing, and this medicine suppressed the cough in half an hour. I made sure to eat prior to taking the pill, and I felt no dizziness or nausea. The pill really isn’t that big, I’ve had prenatal pills bigger than this. I highly recommend!!

DIDN'T HELP
So I bought this thinking it would help within the 12 hour span or provide 12 hour relief. Nope, I'm still dealing with mucus and cough due to mucus and yes it's frustrating now gotta get something to focus on cough. Please provide fast relief for future products.

Not for someone with HBP!
Ingredients not for someone who takes high blood pressure medication. Causes mine to get extremely high. I can’t take Mucinex for this reason.
