Guaifenesin "Wonderful results after only a week. Not nearly as stiff, does not make me tired, and effects last 10-12 hours. A blessing it can be bought over the counter."

"Found Dr. Amand's website in August 2000. I was very sick, life was purely awful. At the second year, I was definitely getting much better, and at the 4-5 year mark, I was me again. I felt brand new."

Guaifenesin "I can't take any form of Mucinex, or its generics, without becoming totally lethargic. I turn into a complete zombie. I'm happy for those of you who find relief with it, but for me, it's a total fail."
