For Cough "I was given this for the bad cough I have with the flu and a double ear infection. It definitely is the best cough suppressant I've ever taken. The side effects I didn't like were the intense itching all over and the drowsiness. It is something to definitely only take at night, but I was still drowsy the entire next day. I am not a light weight with medicine at all... but this one kicked my cough's butt. I wasn't told not to take my klonopin with it either, so my first dose I had already taken it, and the side effects were intensified. I couldn't sleep and had horrible nightmares. Definitely works... but be very careful with it."

For Cough "I was prescribed Hydromet for a flu-related cough. It did great for taking care of my cough, but the vomiting, itching, headache, and light sensitivity that I have as side effects aren't worth it for me."

For Cough "Was given Hydromet syrup for violent cough due to upper respiratory infection. Works VERY well. The only problem I have is intense itching with any hydrocodone."
