Okay when I am feeling better, I am squirreling away the rest of these prescription Mucinex DM tablets away for a rainy day. They take a while to kick in but these things are magical.

I’ve gone from coughing up a small amount of mucus every 2-3 minutes to not really having involuntary coughing fits at all, and yet, also being able to hawk up 4x the mucus in one go if I choose to try.
Drugs work, y’all. Ask your doctor about them if you can.
More than half the reason this illness that I’ve had this past week has been so brutal is because I’ve literally been unable to sleep because of the coughing fits. I’ve gotten a few hours of real sleep the entire past week.
this is me and caffeine (used to flip-flop between Ritalin and Adderall but specialty coffee is cheaper and you won't be treated like an addict every step of the way)
I do have something like that with caffeine, as before the Adderall scrip, I was downing several 5 Hour Energies a day (actually Tweaker brand, which cost half as much), and if I didn't I would fall asleep while people were talking to me and occasionally while I was driving.
If they're the same dextromethorphan+guaifenesin tablets you can get over the counter, Robitussin DM has the same stuff in liquid form, which acts faster.
Guaifenesin and dextromorphan are so useful. I keep both around separately so I can mix and match as needed. Also some pseudoephedrine in case we need to get dangerous
