I'm not often sick, but when I have had cold or flu this has been very helpful. When I have had flu like symptoms, it helped break the fever, usually stimulating some sweating and then fever reduction. In the case of colds (and flu) it seems to take the edge off my worst symptoms quickly, both sore throat and cough. And I may be strange but I actually like the taste of the lemon version.

I started to develop a sinus/cold. I have a scratchy throat, pressure over the eyes and began to develop a headache. I tried the medicine and within one hour I could feel the relief.

So far it's working, except some mild coughing still. I had a weird sensation right after taking it.. About 5 minutes after I could feel my limbs tingling... thankfully I only took it during the day so I can feel more engerzied. I drank mango juice right after taking it and I couldn't taste the flavoring of the medicine !

Honestly, I don't know why others didn't like the taste. I usually have a cup of tea in the morning, this sat very well with me. Maybe a bit too much on the lemon, but it's not half bad. Also cleared my stuffy nose within just a few sips. 11/10

I took Theraflu 3 times a day two weeks straight, and It didn't help my cough at all. It was recommended by many people, so I was very excited to try it. Sadly, it didn't help me at all. Hopefully, they will come out with a more effective medicine for the future.

It is amazing. I drank a cup of it twice a day, in the morning before work and before going to bed and I noticed the difference almost instantly. Others have commented on the taste but now they have berry flavor as well as Lipton. I honestly didn't care what the taste was as long as it helped me and it definetely did. I went back to Target and brought out the whole shelf in case they want to do a recall again, I'll be prepared.Read More Read Less

My recommendation: Find medicines listed on box at drug counter and make your own hot drink. YECH!! Read More Read Less

The ingredients work.... if I can stand to actually drink the stuff. The chemical flavor is due to the heavy amount of aspartame in the medicine and the citrus flavor just makes it unbearable to my tastebuds.
