12 Aug 2009 It was not as effective as I expected. More sweet than having the actual cough supressent necessary to relieve cough timely.

13 Jul 2009 This medication works well (especially if I have a sore throat to accompany the coughing) but I would highly recommend that it not be taken if you need to drive or if you have any major committments...others may think that you are some type of 'street drug'...for a lack of better description.
