I took this medication because my head and ears were clogged, and I had a dry cough. Within three days I had less coughing at night, and it was a productive cough, and my head and ears were less clogged.

The medication helped a lot with my chronic cough but I had to stop taking it as I BEGAN to feel better I WAS dizzy all the time . Great medication for a chronic cough it really clears up the mucus.

This stuff took care of my cough but the side effects forced me to stop using it. I had difficulty sleeping at night, my heart rate accelerated, and it became difficult to urinate. I will not use it again.

Excellent result in my case. Had a bad cough during my covid infection and this started working right away and stopped it almost completely after just three doses, just one cough here and there.

My 7 and 8 year old got diagnosed with Covid, they couldn’t stop coughing. After one he of the dose, my boys are good as new. Great medicine ?? it’s really sad ?? to see them not stop coughing. This helped them so very much ????

My daughter (17) was diagnosed with a common cold/allergy symptoms. She had a terrible cough, migraines, coughing up mucus. Her doctor prescribed her this. After taking this for a couple of days, my daughter began feeling really dizzy after each dose and she really couldn’t eat. The one good thing about it, she says, is that it numbs her throat for a few minutes.

My 2 1/2 year son had a seizure and had to be rushed to ER. I used minimal amounts & it still caused all this trauma. It didn’t help his Respiratory Virus at all. I do not recommend this medication at all! He also had loss of appetite, drowsiness, confusion and problems urinating.

My dad took it for a regular cough. It ended up swelling his prostate up and he hasn't been able to pee in about a month on his own because of this. Would not recommend.

I literally had covid and was super sick. I tested for COVID on Monday and was super sick Tuesday, I only slept and took Bromophen that entire day. I woke up Wednesday morning with minimal symptoms only inlcuding a runny nose and less coughing. I test again Sunday and it came back negative! The vaccine definitely played a role, but on Tuesday Bromophen was a life saver! I was congested, coughing, sneezing, and had a fever, and I woke up Wednesday feeling so much better. Its the COVID cure :)

I took this because I had a cough that hasn’t gone away after having pneumonia and covid. It did help me stop coughing but I was really drowsy and had no appetite whatsoever. But it’s the only thing that has helped my cough.

Insurance didn't cover it so it was $40 down the drain as it was not any help.
