Robitussin By morrandricky on Dec 19, 2007 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

Robitussin pediatric cough and cold over the counter medicine is not effective at all. I don't even know why they even make medicines like these. It served no purpose. It's almost like a placebo medicine. I can give my kids this medicine and before you know it the bottle is finished and they still have the cough. Robitussin is more like a sugar coated drink or something. It's more high fructose corn syrup than anything else that would actually be effective in controlling a cough or cold. I learned my lesson and am now living the old fashioned way which is drinking pure lemon juice with some honey in there and trust me, this is the best cough, cold, medicine you can take to cure and take care of your problem. anything herbal and natural or even organic is the best remedy for many illnesses, sicknesses!!!
