"This medication has been effective in stopping post-nasal drip and the cough it caused. Issues caused by colds or allergies were addressed by this medication better than any of the newer drugs. It is cost-effective but hard to find in some cases. I frequent small pharmacies and check the house brands at larger ones."

"This chlorpheniramine is the only thing that works for my cold. I have been using it for years when I need it. If I didn't have this medicine I would be sick way more often. I don't know why it is getting harder to find. It use to be very inexpensive even with a prescription. Now its getting up in price. Don't know what I will do if they completely quit making it. The regular OTC stuff doesn't work that well for me and seems to stir the illness up worse and sick for 2 weeks or more. This doesn't, It dries me up and within a few days I'm over it."
