User Comments about Robitussin A-C Syrup
02 Jul 2010 As soon as I start to think im developing a cough my mom always gives me Robitussin. I like how it gives me good results after a few times of taking the medicine. The flavor is the only thing I dislike about it but rather than that I like this cough syrup the best !

23 May 2010 I have a cold and I lost my voice now so I am taking this to break up the mucus in my lungs. I still have no voice but it does help a little.

23 May 2009 Although Robitussin may not taste so great, it works to soothe my cold and coughs. It works best if I take it before I sleep.
