Covonia Expectorant Mentholated Cough Mixture

Well it's that time of year again when the weather starts to turn nasty and everyone within breathing distance around you is coughing or sneezing. In my household this has been a regular occurrence for a few weeks now as we seem to keep passing our coughs and colds on to each other and I'm now onto cough/cold number 2 in as many weeks.. I have tried most cold remedies over the years, as if there is a cold going around then it's odds on I will catch it as I seem to have a low immune system with these pesky viruses. Because I'm a 'pro' I regularly keep a stockpile of such medicines like this ... more

It's that time of the year again... I suffer from Asthma, and if I have the misfortune to get a cold or flu, it usually goes straight "on my chest", resulting in a horrible chesty cough with lots of phlegm (sorry if you are eating!) that is incredibly difficult to get rid of. While my inhalers help to keep my airways open, I like to take other remedies in addition to these to ease the discomfort of the cough and aid my breathing, as well as soothing the soreness in my throat. I have tried several different cough medicines over the years, but none have proved to be as effective as Covonia ... more

Covonia Cough Mixture Everyone knows that cough mixture doesn't work and even doctors tell you that it is really just a waste of money as you really just have to see a cough through and make it less painful by keeping fluids up, having lemon and hot water and taking painkillers to numb any pain. But still people buy cough medicine in the hope that perhaps “this time” it will work! My last cough resulted in me loosing my mind somewhat along with buying up half of my local Boots in a bid to both easy and rid the blinking thing. This bottle of Covonia I have has got to be the best cough medicine ... more

I’m suffering at the moment with a cold which I have had a while, I get it every year, and now I have developed a cough too. I never normally buy cough medicines as my mum always told me they don’t help at all, but as my cough is so bad this year it is getting me down and keeping me awake at night, I decided to just give a cough medicine a go. I bought this covonia cough medicine as it was the first one that came into my head as I remember seeing loads of adverts for this medicine over the years. The bottle cost me £2.99 for a 150ml bottle which is brown, and the medicine inside is also brown ... more

Even though I think this is a good product, I find the advert for this annoying! I had never tried this before and always stuck to the other named Cough Medicine such as Beechams, but this came recommended and i've had this and tried others in the range. I got this over the counter at Asda and think last time I bought it it cost around £3 for the 150ml bottle. The bottle isn't the best looking bottle i've seen, but it's Cough Medicine and as long as it does the job then I don't care. You can take a 10ml measure of this every 4 hours. It is quite a thick Syrup, and the first time the wife had ... more
