I ended up in the hospital with the rare side affect caused my face, tongue and lips to swell and my throat closed. I am in the hospital as we speak taking shots of steroids to counteract these problems and I intended to contact my Attorney upon this matter. Please DO NOT use this cough syrup...

My wife's cough got worse whenever she took, not really sure why it's still been sold. Boots need to get it off it's shelves. Appears patients are being used for trial run.

It's one thing to charge more for less product, but to require us (and poor sick children) to choke down twice the previous volume of the vile stuff in order to receive a dose is unconscionable. Shame on the makers.

I honestly don’t know how Robitussin are allowed to still be on shelves in stores. Faults advertising to me , because it absolutely do not work. I will not waste my money on it.

After taking just one dose of this product I am having "waking dreams". I am aware of what I'm doing and able to do my job, but I am also having dreams that I am doing other things. I will never take this again. It hasn't helped much with my cough either.

Began taking product last night after having a deep chest cough for a few days. I was unable to sleep but didnt cough until after 5 hours. I took another dose 4:30 am then decided to look for reviews on the internet. I was shocked to read about the negative experiences. This will probably be my last dose because I don't need to make things worst and I have already experienced the side effect of not sleeping through the first dose.

It works for the first 30 mins or an hour after I take it. It's heaven then but afterwards it completely goes away.. Not as good as I hoped it would be.

Took this medication for a cough, only two doses. Woke up the next morning eyes swollen almost shut, lips, neck even ear lobes. Steroid shots, to relieve the severe case of hives. Beware!

Overall I've been really happy w/ it. I am 30 years old and this is my first ever cough. I literally did not know what to do so my boyfriend brought me some of this. It doesn't last the full 4 hours for me but there is a sweet spot in the middle of the dose where I don't even have the urge to cough and that horrible tickle in my lungs is gone.
