Works but still tastes bad
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product definitely came in handy when the cold hit our household. Instructions say to take 20 ML‘s every four hours. This product was great at reducing aches and pains as well as relieving fever. Thankfully, we do not have bad coughs but what little coughs we did have were subsided by this medication. I do love that the bottle comes with the measuring cup for easy dosage. Unfortunately, the taste was not great, but I’ve yet to find any liquid medicine that has a good taste.

This medication really does what it says
The strength is just right. It has a pretty decent taste. The smell is okay. It does last a long time and the dosage seems right based on weight. I always take this when I’m sick and it helps tremendously.

Works pretty well
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve got the nastiest cold right now and this medicine is definitely hitting the spot. It calms down my cough pretty well but I have noticed it doesn’t last as long as other cough depressants I’ve used before. The taste to me is decent, I don’t like cough syrups but it’s not as bad as others.

This isn’t a quick cure
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] One of those products that nobody wants but everybody needs! I wish I didn’t have to use it at any point, but this is that time of year! As expected the taste is got awful like every other cough and cold syrup. But the texture is not too thick and though it takes a bit to kick in, once it does it works pretty great!

One product that helps relieve multiple cold and f
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Is very convenient because it treats multiple cold and flu symptoms at once. It helped calm my cough and chest congestion while also easing body aches. The liquid has a smooth texture and the flavor is tolerable compared to other syrups. I like having one product that covers several symptoms, especially during cold and flu season.

It worked but I’m not a liquid medicine person.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I understand that this is medication, so I didn’t have high expectations when it came to taste. That said, the taste was not appealing at all. However, the instructions were clear and easy to follow, which made the process straightforward. I did experience some relief after using it, and the medication was effective in doing what it was intended to do. The results were noticeable, but it does require repeated use to achieve the maximum benefit. While the taste may be unpleasant, the effectiveness makes it worthwhile. Overall, it works as expected for a medicinal product, and as long as you follow the directions and remain consistent, it can provide helpful relief despite the less-than-pleasant flavor.

Cough relief
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This adult cough cold & flu medicine is going to be a life saver this winter. It does a great job of suppressing the never ending coughs that seem to linger all season!

Works
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This worked really well for nighttime coughs. The honey flavor makes it easier for kids to take, and it helped calm coughing so they could sleep more comfortably. I also like that it’s long-lasting and gentle enough for nighttime use. Definitely something I’d keep on hand during cold season.

Helped with families colds!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product for free in exchange for my honest review! My husband and daughter both tried the Robutussin Severe Multi-Symptom Maximum Strength Cold and Cough syrup when they were both feeling sick. My daughter took a little bit before she went to work one day and said it didn't make her tired and it helped with her head cold and it helped her feel a little better while she was at work. My husband used it for 3 days with his cold and he swears it's what helped him get better quicker. He loved that he was able to use some before heading to work as well and that it didn't leave him feeling tired and lethargic. He didn't care for the flavor however, he had to drink something after he would take some and he stated it left a bad aftertaste for about 5 minutes afterwards. I will probably buy this as an additional medicine to use during cold and cough season.

Pretty good
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So I prefer to take gel caps but overall the flavor wasn’t too bad. The packaging is just like any other liquid medication I’ve had in the past. It definitely helped my symptoms when I had a bad cold. Overall it was pretty good.

Works great
Works good enough to get some sleep. In the morning I am able to blow out accumulation in a hot shower. So it does thin things out good enough to get rid of it.
