Mucinex 12Hr Max Strength Expectorant, Chest Congestion Relief, 28 Tablets

Great product !

No issues

Guaifenesin is the go-to OTC medicine to help breakup phlegm due to colds or flu. Mucinex brand provides assurance of high quality components providing consistent helpful results.

Well, I can’t remember when I first started taking this but have been for many years. It is nothing short of a great product and is very effective at clearing congestion and is my only go to FOR doing so I know there are other products out there similar, but this is the benchmark of decongestants and will be the only one that I buy

The active ingredient in this medication is Guaifenesin, which loosens phlegm and increases the lubrication of your lungs allowing so your cough is more productive and your bronchial passages stay clear. If you're like me and have lots of bronchial congestion and asthma type symptoms in the spring when there's lots of pollen in the air or if you're just suffering because of a cold, you want something that will work to relieve it without making you jittery like some medications and one that you don't have to worry about taking every 4 or 5 hours. I've had good luck with this one.I'd tried the regular strength Mucinex, the one in the green box, which contains the ingredients 600 mg Guaifenesin and 30 mg Dextromethorphan HBr when I had one of those coughs that seem to go on forever, one that kept me up at night, due to a cold. It worked well on the cough but wasn't strong enough to keep my lungs clear. I still had that tightness in my chest. This one contains only the Guaifenesin, but it has 1200 mg which is strong enough to do the job. I haven't had a cough since trying it, so I don't know if it would help with that. The instructions say to drink plenty of fluids because it draws liquid into the bronchi. The water both thins mucus and lubricates the airway, facilitating the removal of mucus by coughing. Some people have mentioned their nasal passages or throat feeling dry after taking this medication but I haven't noticed that. Maybe it's because I drink a lot of water. (And Diet Coke) I haven't noticed any side effects after taking it for a few days. The tablets are a little large, probably because they're time released, so if you have a problem swallowing pills, these could be a little difficult. I like that I only have to remember to take them every 12 hours. Actually, the effects seem to last a few hours past that.

I expected this to break up my chest congestion more than it did. It worked but not that well. I think I should have ordered the fast max version instead of the extended release.

Item as described, came crushed due to bad packaging

My go to product. We always keep Mucinex expectorant on hand. Helps great with congestion.
