cough syrups?
Ok, I'm getting a cold. I have a closet full of cough syrup but I know
they all have sugar in them. I am looking for a good cough syrup w/o sugar. It needs to be strong as I usually end up with bronchitis. Thanks, Jodie |

Robitussin makes a sugar-free cough syrup. Check with the pharmacist.
Hope that helps, DebH |

Thanks, Jodie Although it tastes rather feral (kind of like mouldy liquorice), most chemists/drugstores will stock a basic 'Senega Ammonia' mixture. It isn't based on a sugar syrup like most, and is great for clearing mucus off the chest as well as soothing coughs. If you drink warm water after taking it, the flavour departs your tongue faster |

Most pharmacies carry sugarfree cough syrups for diabetics, but they are usually near diabetic supplies, rather than with the other cough syrups. They come in variations like Robitussin does, containing the same combinations of expectorant (loosens phlegm), cough suppressant, and decongestant, possibly antihistamine as well. I'm not sure what you mean by strong. Over the counter compositions are all the same dosages. -- jamie ) "There's a seeker born every minute." |

I guess that by strong I meant that I'm used to getting cough syrup with codeine from my Dr. I know that it must have sugar in it so I decided on the sugar free robitussin and popping a half tablet of codeine! I hate being sick. The worst part for me is no chcken noodle soup!!!! Jodie Nothing wrong with chicken soup without the noodles though! finely shred some zucchini (or grate it) into it and you'll barely notice the missing noodles |
