Hi anyone "Help"I can't stop coughing. I want to have DH go get some cough syrup I need a name. He doesn't ask for directions when he is lost on the road or in a drug store.
TIA, Pat

Call the pharmacy and ask. They're usually very helpful!

I got store brand (Eckerd) and didn't see (or look for) any name brands.

Hope you're feeling better!

i just looked on the shelf for the label that said sugar free. it was the only one they had. i think it was robitussin, but am not sure. and don't forget the sugar free cough drops also.

hope you feel better soon!

Cindy and acipenser,
Thank you so much it is Robitussin and it is working. The pharmacist said it was the only one he knew of. I really am impressed with all you wonderful people thanks again.

In case you're interested, there's another brand that I'm aware of called Diabetic Tussin. Unfortunately, it doesn't taste any better than the sugar-free Robitussin. Yuck!

Thanks Lisa,
I will keep it in mind if this Robitussn stops working. I can't imagine anything tasting as bad as it does. :p Pat

Oh, *I* can think of something that tastes worse. It's called Buckley's. You might have a hard time finding it; it's Canadian and only recently started being sold in the US, but if you ever see it, *buy it*. It's horrible. It tastes like camphor and hair perm. But it *works*. (Plus, it's sugar free. :thup: )
