Quiet The Cough By snowwhite72 on Mar 06, 2009 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

My 12 year old son had caught a nasty cold, I took him to the doctor and after a week of antibiotics he was much better except he was left with an irratating cough that just wouldn't go away! I had seen a commercial for Delsym, and I decided to try it. They only had two flavors to choose from, orange and grape. I bought the grape flavor. I gave it to my son, and with in an hour it had quieted his cough enough that he actually fell asleep, and got some much needed rest. And no the medicine didn't knock him out, he could just finally sleep without being disturbed by his cough.

By day 3 the cough was gone! I was definitely impressed. I wish they would make more of a variety of medicines to include sinus, or flu medicine. For now, all they have is the cough suppressant formula. This cough syrup really works, they will have my business from now on. It is so hard to find medicine that really works as it says, and when you do you want to buy them out!
