Received prescription when I was diagnosed with the flu. I didn't cough unti the flu was gone. This allowed me to rest at night and cough up the drainage during the day.

I haven't had any of the issues listed here by others. I haven't had any of the stomach issues and have slept fine at night. I guess it effects different people differently. The coughing is usually suppressed after taking it, but sometimes I feel like it takes a little longer than it should.

Dr. gave me this to take full well knowing I am a Diabetic with severe heart problems and have Liver Disease. I lloked it up here and it said for folks w/ these should be careful & talk to Dr. What a quack he is! Time to change. It tasted awlful and only made me very sick. Glad I found out about Precautions before I took 2nd dose! I am my own protector. I think my Dr. graduated at the bottom of his class! :(

My Dr. gave me this. It cost me $40.00 and all it is is Alka-Seltzer Plus Cold and Cough. (look it up) That should be illegal.

I was prescribed this medication by my doctor for cough and cold symtoms. I take this before bedtime and as a result, my runny nose and cough has almost completely gone away. It has helped me to sleep very well. As a result of finally getting good sleep I believe it has helped my cold to pass a lot faster. I strongly recommend this cold medication!

I have been coughing for approximately 2 weeks, thinking that it would go away on its own. I finally went to the doctor and seh prescribe Ceron-DM. My cough was almost gone within 2 days. I was able to function much better.

My 2yr old son ended up at the er monday last week due to a HIGH fever. They put him on this med. 2 days later my inlaws came for a visit. My son is normally hyper but a sweet loving child. While they were here he was biting, hitting, pinching, no listening to anything we were saying. No disciplinary actions were working. His normal wildness increased to 100 miles an hour. He got these evil looks in his eyes. He took a crow bar in the truck and tried smashing out the window (husband caught him in middle of the swing). We have this one room that has a lock on the outside to keep little ones from going in. He got an evil grin and tried locking me in. On Mothers Day I had to get a babysitter for him so my husband, in laws, and daughter could go out and enjoy dinner. My husband and I scratched our heads of any new changes that could change our sweet boy over night like this. This med was the only major change we could think of. We started researching it and came to find out others with children the same age are having simular issues. We are taking our son off of the meds NOW and I cant wait till they get out of his system ~ just writing this he's hit me a number of times wipped soap on me and no is running around the house like hes possessed. Also I notice the cough get worst not better.Read More Read Less

I had every side effect and no idea why I wasn't feeling better. My prescription didn't have a label that even warned me of the side effects. I continued taking the medication, as prescribed, and wasn't feeling any better; actually worse. I was dizzy, had a head ache, nausea, & dry throat. I coughed till it hurt. Please put side effect warnings on prescription. I drove myself and my family to work and school for an entire week; this could of been tragic.

I am in my early twenties and I took this medicine. It worked, but it did make me very woozy. If someone doesn't have a high tolerance for these types of cough medicine...don't go anywhere!
