Benylin Chesty Coughs Non-Drowsy

Advantages: frees mucus which settled on your chest
Disadvantages: the worst tasting thing ever

This is a great product which really works. After hardly being unable to breath for 2 days due to mucus build up on my chest I purchased this medicine. I think it is good value for money as you can not put a price on being able to breath clearly and stop coughing/choking all night. I found that about 20mins after taking it the coughing did become worse for about a minute but with actual physical results as the mucus was working free.(just use your ...

COUGH, COUGH, SLEEP, SLEEP, ZZZZZZZZ

Advantages: A good nights sleep, relief from a cough and blocked nose
Disadvantages: Can make you drowsy so care must be taken

...operate machinery, There are other Benylin mixtures available for day use and they are the non-drowsy formulas. The average adult can expect to catch between 2-5 colds each year, with a blocked, stuffed up nose and cough being some of the symptoms. Benylin original for chesty coughs is a thick deep red syrup and smells really of nothing identifiable at all. Taste wise again maybe I have got used to this mixture but I find it has quite a palatable ...
...dry or productive (chesty) The Benylin I am going to tell you about is for a productive(chesty) cough. HOW DOES BENYLIN WORK A productive cough will need an expectorant as this will losen the mucus or phlegm so aiding you to be able to cough it up and this in turn will allow for easier breathing. Benylin Original is a mixture suitable for a chesty or productive cough it can also help by clearing any nasal congestion you may have aiding easier breathing. ...

Benylin Day and Night

Advantages: Does what it says on the box
Disadvantages: None in my eyes

...feel terrible. However i tried Benylin Day and Night, 3 white tablets in the day and 1 blue one for the night time. 20 minutes after taking the first tablet i felt the effect straight away. I could breath easier, i didnt feel bunged up, and i generally felt better in myself. After taking the blue tablet before i went to bed, i had the best nights sleep, no waking during the night to cough. I slept straight through till my alarm clock woke me. I followed ...
...cold had nearly gone These tablets by far are some of the best on the market. Limited to one box per customer but i really do feel they will benefit anyone with a bad cold. But you must only take the blue one at night as it will send you to sleep. I will only use this product now as i know it definately works. I paid about £3.99 but some other chemists may charge less. I must point out though, 2 friends tried this product, one of them it worked ...

Benylin - Weak Enough For A Small Child!

Advantages: Tastes Quite Nice
Disadvantages: Expensive, Sticky And Messy

...who recommended a Product called Benylin Tickly Cough Non Drowsy. Benylin is a name that has been synonymous with Coughs for as long as I can remember. The name instantly conjured up an image for me of a thick, dark Liquid that resembled Tar in both appearance and taste. For a brief moment I shuddered, but realising that this was quite possibly my only way of getting rid of my irritating Cough I parted with my money and headed off back Home to the ...
...this is due to the Benylin or simply the course of time I cannot be certain. One thing that does make me question how effective this stuff is comes from the small print on the side of the bottle that advises that this Medicine is suitable for anyone over one year of age. Surely therefore there cannot be anything too powerful here then? I paid £3.25 for a 125ml bottle which has now more or less run out. Will I buy it again? The answer to that is ...

dont touch it with a barge poll --- ADDICTIVE!

Advantages: unblocks your nose
Disadvantages: is badly addictive and once you're hooked you really cant get off the stuff! please dont bother

If i knew then (2 YEARS AGO) what i know now i would NEVER have touched sinex with a barge poll! lots of the reviews say this is addictive and trust me, they are right, and dont think it can't happen to you becuase it can. I started taking sinex one or two times a day for a cold, i works really well and very quickly. Becuase of this i kept using it as if i didnt my nose would block quickly and before you know it its 6 months down the line and i'm ...
...my little bottle of sinex it, it was ridiculous...being so dependant on sinex!! the thing is, if you use it for too long you get what is called rebound congestion, you nose just blocks really really badly and really quickly if you dont use it, so you feel like you have to use it to be able to breathe. My nose would completly block to the point where i could not breathe any air what so ever through my nose. The other thing is, as the rebound congestion ...
