Chlorpheniramine / hydrocodone "Awesome medication for severe allergies. I have been taking this medicine now for 2 years. My environmental allergies were just getting worse and worse. I have been to many allergists who kept giving me nose sprays and shots once a week. After one year of continual shots and not getting better, my doctor prescribed Tussionex. Just imagine feeling like you have a bad cold all year round, coughing, sneezing, and feeling miserable. Tussionex made me feel normal. I had forgotten what it was like not to cough, have a runny nose, and feel like I had the flu. With the Tussionex, I felt so good since it stopped the cough, the runny nose, and all the aches and pains in my neck and sinuses. THANK YOU for Tussionex!"

Chlorpheniramine / hydrocodone "I had chest congestion for about a week, and when I talked to my friends, I would start coughing. This was what the doctor prescribed, and when the pharmacist gave me the medicine, she explained the side effects to me and to drink liquids too. I took my dose from a 5 ml plastic cup. I have taken 3 doses so far. The effects on me were dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth, and nausea. My head was spinning so much I couldn't stand up. Sometimes it would cause me to fall asleep, but sleep was helpful. The nausea was unpleasant. After two days, I felt better. This was strong medicine to take, but it was better taking it at night. Otherwise, it knocks me right out."

Chlorpheniramine / hydrocodone "My physician ordered this medicine after a severe flu and cold that lasted over a month. I found immediate relief, even helped the laryngitis. I see great potential for my patients in hospice. I am amazed at how effective it worked and with minimal negative side effects. I am amazed I have never heard of it before. As a clinician, I see great potential for my patients."

Chlorpheniramine / hydrocodone "Tussionex® Pennkinetic is a very good medication for cold and cough conditions accompanied with aches, etc. The active ingredients (hydrocodone 10 mg/chlorpheniramine 8 mg) last a long time for long-lasting relief. I would recommend Tussionex® Pennkinetic 12-Hour Suspension over any other cough preparation. Cough relieved. Rest assured. Not to mention the hydrocodone is good for aches and pains."

Chlorpheniramine / hydrocodone "I don't have the luxury of having a sick day most of the time, and I asked the doctor to give me something to treat the symptoms so I would not be so miserable. Coughing, runny nose, headache, etc. This really worked well for me. Furthermore, I was able to sleep through the night and not keep my wife awake. For your information, I have never had any troubles with drugs and side effects (not like I take much anyway). Bottom line, if it works for you like it works for me, you will be able to perform normally and better than you could have otherwise and sleep well."

Chlorpheniramine / hydrocodone "CAREFUL! Warning that you can become drowsy the next day after using this product. Falling asleep at work, or while driving, because the narcotic is too much. If you're able to be passive with just a glass of wine, think seriously before taking the full teaspoon. Talk to your doctor if you feel unusually tired because of the Tussionex."

Chlorpheniramine / hydrocodone "Was given this medicine for upper respiratory tract infection. It helps the cough but makes you feel really out of it. With this prescription, I have had headaches. I'm on the 12-hour/1 tsp dosage. I would recommend this drug before you go to bed."

Chlorpheniramine / hydrocodone "The medicine is very good at relieving the symptoms of a cold. Greatly reduced cough and dried me up as I have never seen. It may be too dry, so drink a lot of fluids. I have to say, though, don't drive a car or operate machinery. It makes it very hard to think clearly. Definitely made for use where you stay home and depend on someone else to do the thinking."

"This is the only medicine I have found that clears up my stuffy/runny nose, sneezing, itchy, watery eyes. I've tried several allergy pills and nasal sprays with no relief! The only problem is, doctors don't want to prescribe this medication because so many patients abuse it. I've also taken this medicine for bronchitis, and it worked wonders!"

Chlorpheniramine / hydrocodone "I was prescribed this medicine after going to urgent care for what I thought was a basic head cold. I was told I had the flu. I did not think my symptoms were consistent with what I considered the flu, but I had not been sick in a long time and cannot remember when I last had the flu. The medicine definitely dried me up, per se, but I started getting really jittery and anxious, and when trying to go to sleep, could not due to the itching. I know I am sensitive to medications and have never had this medicine before. If you are like me and sensitive to medicines, be prepared for side effects."

Chlorpheniramine / hydrocodone "Unfortunately, I have had the third teaspoon, and I am still coughing my butt off. I know for a fact that Walgreens at the University and trying are good for not giving you the prescription prescribed by your attending physician. I am definitely returning this medication to Walgreens, so help me God."

Chlorpheniramine / hydrocodone "This is the best cough and cold syrup ever made. Unfortunately, I am a smoker, so I tend to get coughs and colds easier than non-smokers. This really works for me, and it makes me feel better."

Chlorpheniramine / hydrocodone "I had very severe viral bronchitis with a chronic cough. The medicine did help my cough somewhat, but nothing amazing. The worst side effect was that it caused me to have a lot of trouble urinating."

"This worked great. I did have some itching all over from it, but it was worth it. I would definitely take it again."
