I have Chronic Bronchitis and this is what my doctor gives me for my cough. It works well with no side effects. I try not to use it very much so that it will work the next time I need it.

I smoke so I cough on occasion anyway but I got a cold that went into my chest and this medication worked for me. I was surprised because most cough meds. I've had in the past just put me to sleep but this one actually allowed me to sleep thru the night without coughing.

this medicine is great it works really quick like in a week or less you'll be cured. the only problem is that it doesn't taste good and it makes you really drowsy

I was glad to see another person noticed that it affected their vision. It did for me too; not enough to stop using it against my cough, though. Glad to know it was not just my eyes.

stopped the cough, but made my vision distored and sensitive to light.
