Hydromet (homatropine/hydrocodone): I was coughing all the time. I went to the doctor about 3 times before he gave me hydromet syrup to take anyway when I read what the side effects were I was so scared to take it but I took only 1 teaspoonful and it worked like magic . Side effect did not bother me at all. I did not take it in the day only at night because I am asleep and no more coughing for me thanks.

Hycodan (homatropine/hydrocodone): I found this medication to be in a completely different class to other other the counter medicines. It knocked the cough out, and for the whole night. I slept like a baby without difficulty in waking up. Follow directions exactly even though teaspoon seems like a tiny amount, it is strong medication. You will not be disappointed with it.

Hycodan (homatropine/hydrocodone): This works great for coughs. I had bronchitis pretty bad and it worked almost immediately. I didn't really look at what the doctor was giving me so I didn't realize right away that it was going to be so strong. I don't take it every four hours as directed. I take it once or twice a day and that is enough. At first I made the mistake of taking it right out of the bottle; big mistake. Don't take more than directed, in my case I was told to take one teaspoon. That is more than enough.

Hycodan (homatropine/hydrocodone): This works very well and tastes great too. I've tried many over the years from my doctor. Only this one works for me.

homatropine/hydrocodone: Works great. Always eat when taking a narcotic of any sort to prevent stomach ache. My cough went away nicely. I can breathe again.

homatropine/hydrocodone: This medicine is very effective. It not only suppressed my cough, but was a very effective expectorant. It loosened up my very tight feeling chest - an outcome the other OTC medications failed to provide. One caution: I took a dose when I got up one morning, on an empty stomach, and then went out to do an hours worth of yard work. Came in and had a big glass of cold grape juice. Within 10 minutes I vomited the whole lot out. Felt better after a bit, though.

Hydromet (homatropine/hydrocodone): I took 2 teaspoons of this cough medicine because I have been bothered with consistent cough due to virus that has overtaken my family. Anyway, I fell in a twilight sleep where I could still hear the T.V and could hear myself snore. I was having scary dreams. I couldn't urinate when I went to the bathroom. Going into the 3rd or 4th hour after taking the medicine, I woke up with nausea, dizziness, and headache. I ended up sleeping on the bathroom floor with a pillow. That kind of reaction is not something that I want to experience again.

Hycodan (homatropine/hydrocodone): Hycodan worked great for the cough, but I ended up with a rebound headache the next morning. It also made me itchy and have strange dreams. Even with all these side effects, it was worth it to have a good nights sleep.

Hydromet (homatropine/hydrocodone): I got Hydromet for my cough because I had pneumonia. It worked awesome for me especially before bedtime so I could get a good nights sleep. I'm not used to taking narcotics and I thought maybe my stomach wouldn't be able to handle it, but like I said it worked great and it was easy on my stomach.

Hycodan (homatropine/hydrocodone): This medicine is very effective for a nagging cough that won't quit, but be very careful with dosage. I once took 2 teaspoon instead of my regular 1 tsp dose and felt absolutely AWFUL - shaking, agitated, hot flashes, nervous, nauseous.

Hydromet (homatropine/hydrocodone): I was prescribed Hydromet Syrup for a persistent cough while I had an upper respiratory infection. Although it seemed to take about 10 minutes to take effect, it did significantly reduce my cough. I felt only mildly sleepy for a few minutes after taking it and I could easily use it while working. Taking it before bed, it stopped me from waking every 1/2 hour with a coughing fit. Although I have sometimes felt nauseous when taking hydrocodone (Vicodin), I did not experience any stomach upset with this syrup.

Hycodan (homatropine/hydrocodone): I have had a hacking cough for about a month that was severely hindering my ability to sleep. I've only used this medicine for one night and last night was the best night's sleep in over a month. Even my boyfriend said I didn't cough in my sleep or toss and turn. This medicine is the third medicine I have tried in this past month. I couldn't ask for a better product.

Hycodan (homatropine/hydrocodone): FOR YEARS I HAVE A CHRONIC COUGH AS WELL AS SOME FORM OF ARTHRITIS, WHICH DENIED ME A GOOD NIGHT OF SLEEP. LATELY I HAVE BEEN TAKING A TEASPOON OF HYCODAN SYRUP ALONG WITH 2 ADVIL TABLETS, BEFORE GOING TO BED, AND GOT A RESTFUL NIGHT OF SLEEP AND WOKE UP WITHOUT PAIN.

Hycodan (homatropine/hydrocodone): I tried about 4 OTC cough medicines to no avail. I have tried Hycodan in the past and this is what I recommend if you want a good medicine for a bad cough.

Hycodan (homatropine/hydrocodone): Twice I've had dry coughs that weren't helped by OTC syrups. In each case it felt as though I had a bit of dust adhering to wall of my throat. I went for several days without decent sleep because of all the coughing each night. I was miserable. In both cases hydrocodone (once in pill form and once Hycodan syrup) cured the cough and I was able to get a decent nights sleep. If you ever have bronchitis that keeps you up all night coughing, don't waste time being miserable. Go to a doctor.

Hycodan (homatropine/hydrocodone): Works miraculously on a cough. Be careful of the side effects. Makes me somewhat woosey and dizzy. Use only when desperate for relief.

Tussigon (homatropine/hydrocodone): The only medicine that works for a cough. I've tried everything but this works. Use it sparingly so when you need it to relive the cough. It works.

Hydromet (homatropine/hydrocodone): I have been taking Hydromet cough syrup for 10 years. It works just as well today as it did when I started it (prescribed by my pulmonologist). I have a lung disease and cough incessantly. Sometimes I can stop on my own, but when I start gagging and vomiting, I take 2 teaspoons of the medicine and within seconds I am able to stop. I feel no narcotic effect, only relief from gagging. I have even had severe headaches from violent coughing. I would have no quality of life without Hydromet.

Hydromet (homatropine/hydrocodone): This medication was perscriped as treatment for flu, to be taken only before bed to keep my cough from preventing me from getting rest. It very effectively suppressed the cough so I could sleep. I did seem to be bothered a little more by dreams that woke me, but not cough.

Hycodan (homatropine/hydrocodone): This medicine was used for a racking cough. It gave relief and allowed sleep. It is an important tool in the physicians medicine chest. Take only the exact prescribed dose. it is very strong. Go to bed.
