For Cough "I can feel the medicine start to work after about a half an hour. I'm going on my 3rd week with a bronchitis cough, and it's the worst. It gets so bad that I can't breathe, and my head hurts. I've never had coughing fits like this in my life, so I didn't know if these pearls would work. They make me a little dizzy and tired, but I can tell they work. The relief is amazing. They last about 8 hrs. I wouldn't say they take the cough away completely, but there's definitely an improvement."

For Cough "I'm in college, and I went to a party after a while of not going out, so I was submerged in so many germs all at once, where I ended up getting sick and having this nasty cough. I've had it for about a week now, and it is so extremely painful. It started with a simple sore throat, but now it's too painful to talk or even breathe and sleep. I wake up every hour or so, coughing up mucus, and I never actually fall into a deep sleep, so I'm exhausted all the time. The other day, I was coughing so hard I threw up my entire dinner. Anyway, a doctor prescribed me this recently, so I took it three times in a day, as told to do so, and it has not done anything for me. I don't know how some people are saying it worked in 15 minutes for them. I wish. I don’t know what to do, I need to get rid of this cough. I can't be in class coughing up a lung, especially when COVID is still present. I don't like this medication, I had high hopes, but based on the other reviews here, it just seems like a scam because it isn't working for most."

For Cough "Tessalon Perles are useless for cough, might as well swallow a tic tac, it would have the same effect for a cough. Three times now, I have been given these, and they do absolutely nothing for helping stop my cough. I even tried taking them more frequently, and still no relief. The biggest joke ever for cough relief, and tired of wasting my hard-earned money on such a useless medication. I would rate these zero if it would allow, however, I must choose a rating of one instead. My quality of life is still suffering, I am still coughing so hard I urinate and have bowel movements unexpectedly. I am still crying each time I have a coughing fit, gagging until I puke. My throat is raw, and I have developed a tension migraine from coughing. I have been up for days now with very little sleep and am exhausted from coughing so hard."
