4.0 out of 5 stars Great rroduct but save $ by buying immediate release tablets, December 5, 2005

This review is from: Mucinex Expectorant, Bi-Layer Tablets, 100-Count Bottle (Health and Beauty)

I have used extended release guaifenesin (the active drug in Mucinex) for many years to help with sinus drainage and chronic bronchitis. It really works to clear out the lungs and my MD tells me it helps reduce sinus drainage as well. I stocked up on the prescription form of guaifenesin just before the FDA pulled all extended release guaifenesin from the market except for Mucinex. The reason for this action was somewhat esoteric and it allowed Mucinex to have a monopoly on the extended release form. Well, my horde of prescription guaifenesin finally ran out and I started using Mucinex. It works that same as the old prescription drugs because it is the same thing (they are both extended release guaifenesin). But, Mucinex is very expensive. So, I switched to immediate relase guaifenesin and found that it works just as well at a significant cost savings. The only thing is that you will have to take more immediate release tablets to equal a 12-hour extended release tablet. If you can't let go of the Mucinex, consider taking the immediate release during the day and Mucinex at night. You will save a lot of money. Mucinex is the only extended release tablet on the market. So, if it is guaifenesin and it is not Mucinex then it is an immediate release tablet. Check the price differences.

5.0 out of 5 stars Life saver!! Am I am not kidding, December 30, 2005

This review is from: Mucinex Expectorant, Bi-Layer Tablets, 100-Count Bottle (Health and Beauty)

I have problems with so many of the infection fighting meds on the market. They cause bad side effects, and often do not do what they should. This last go around over $1000 in medications and each round made the problem WORSE.

I took two of these tables and they stopped on an oncoming attack of bronchitis. But to my surprise they knocked out a sinuses infection that had been dragging on for two months.

I could have save $1000 if I have these from the start.

Amazing stuff.

This medication really keeps your lungs clear, no side effects with my other medications, and the price is the BEST out there. Amazon, keep it up with the great prices on what we need. Wal-Mart can't match your prices or selection of products!!!
