If it says on the package/bottle that it relieves sinus pressure & stuffy nose in addition to coughing, then I'd say it's okay. If you don't have a cough & it is labled for coughing only, then there is no point in taking it.

i really dont know but as long as you dont take an over dosage i think it is fine..=]

maybe!

Of course it is. But it might be more effective if you take the right dose for your size/age

There's nothing wrong with it. See if it helps you feel any better. If you still don't feel better after taking this dosage, next time, take the amount listed for your age. Feel better!

While it was not unsafe, it didn't help you at all either. Cough syrup relieves the symptoms of a cold, it doesn't cure it. Most colds are a virus and there isn't a medicine that will make it go away any faster. If the cough syrup took away any of your symptoms, then it was helpful. Please be careful with taking medicines. If you take a lot of them, your body builds up a tolerance to them, and then when you really need them, they won't work. Good luck to you!
