For Cough "After being prescribed, I did some extensive research because the paranoid person that I am, I always research medicines I'm prescribed prior to consuming them. I would've been better off listening to the negative reviews because that's exactly the kind of experience I had (negative). I was advised it would make me drowsy, so I had to take it before bed to help me sleep through the night due to a horrendous cough I've had for about 4-5 days. About 20 minutes in, taking 10 mL, my coughing got way worse, and I felt like I would vomit every time I coughed up a lung. Yes, it made me drowsy, but did absolutely nothing for my cough aside from making it ten times worse."

For Cough "I just got this prescribed to me this afternoon. I have been really sick for a week and not sleeping well. Turns out I had a sinus and double ear infection. I usually don't like anything with codeine because it makes me nauseous. But so far, no nausea, not helping a whole lot with the coughing, but I don't really care either."
