My pcp, first recommended this product to me, several years ago--when I was suffering from a fluish-cold. I found it extremely helpful, (it's important to breath!) as I have a tendancy towards bronchiolitis and asthma. The 12 hour "timed" medication is an added advantage. The price of the product is my only complaint.

I never have adverse reactions to medications, but this one made me incredibly nauseous. About an hour after I took one pill, I felt sick and it lasted about 3-4 days. I thought it had been something I ate, but after I felt better, I took another and the same thing happened. I have no idea how something can stay in your system for so long, but again the nausea lasted 3-4 days. I have no idea if this actually works, as my stomach just couldnt handle it.
Comments about MucinexDM Expectorant and Cough Suppressant, 600mg, Extended-Release Bi-Layer Tablets, 40 ea:
I have used this product in the past and had good results. This time I am not seeing the results I would like to see, such as, relieving running nose and congestion.
Comments about MucinexDM Expectorant and Cough Suppressant, 600mg, Extended-Release Bi-Layer Tablets, 40 ea:
I love the product and works great but the packaging is a bit difficult to use when your hands are swelled. Getting the tablets out through the paper backing is hard.
