For Cough "Doctor prescribed it for me because I was coughing so bad, had my lungs sore. I take 5 ml every 4 hrs as needed for cough, but I take it once before bed, works great, stops cough, and helps sleep."

For Cough "This helped every single time, the alternatives don't help me at all. Now they have pulled it off the shelves. It should be given to patients that it helps. Please put it back on the shelves."

For Cough "Right after I took Promethazine DM, I felt as though I was going to pass out. Started walking sideways, so went right to bed. I guess it's OK if you're able to sleep all day. No thanks."
