It also helps clear my nasal passage and relieves chest tightness.

tasted God awful and my symptoms would clear up for a couple hours and then come right back. Had to wait to take another dose and felt miserable for two-three hours.

I am an 80 year old male; I had a severe cough for couple of days; was checked for Co-Vid; came out negative. As soon as I got the syrup (6PM) I took 1 1/2 teaspoons. No relief was noted until around 11pm. Since the instructions were to take it every 8 hours, I took it at 2am and within the half hour, I started to feel better. 24 hours have not passed since taking it but Cough is now subsided, not gone away but at least going in the right direction.

My doctor gave this to me yesterday instead of what she used give me when I had a cough. All I know is I was coughing constantly, took it as soon as I left the pharmacy and by the time I got home (about 30 min) later I wasnâ??t coughing at all. Iâ??ve had a two doses today and I know it works because I can tell when it wears off. Also the flavor is actually not bad.

I’ll never use another cough syrup. Can’t beat the price for how well it works.

My doctor gave me this because I’m diabetic and it doesn’t have any sugars. I like it because it lasts so long.

I expect medicine to taste bad, so I am not disappointed here. I am disappointed that MEDCO will not pay for it. I can not take codiene, so this med is the next best thing.
