"Dextromethorphan helps suppress my awful cough associated with a bad cold. I like it because it isn’t in a mix with other drugs. Guaifenesin is the drug that is in many cough medicines, and it is an expectorant that thins the mucus but makes me cough so much that my ribs hurt. So my go-to drugs for a bad cold are dextromethorphan for a cough, pseudoephedrine (have to sign for this) for nasal congestion, and Advil for pain. I use Afrin spray at night instead of pseudoephedrine so I can breathe and sleep. I don’t like the nighttime formulas because they make me too drowsy. I average one or two colds a year. I hope my formula helps!"
