Q:

A: I have done very well with Robitussin Chest that my cardiologist’s nurse told me to try. For me it is MUCH better than Mucinex. I take the Robitussin 2-3 times a day, it even helps clear the back of the throat. The 8 oz bottle is about $8 in the drugstore, maybe can be gotten for less in a warehouse club such as Costco or BJ’s. If you have a nebulizer, there is a medicine called Mucomyst, usually prescribed for use with liquid Albuterol.

Q: every doctor diagnosed me with differnet things…….mild asmtha, allergies, bronchties, anxiety, sleep disorder, dyspmea… its like i dont know what i have!!and by excercise do you mean jogging?

A: Mucinex is a brand name for a drug that has been around for years called guaifenesin.. It’s an expectorant which means it enhances the output of respiratory tract fluid..This drug will give you symptomatic relief of respiratory conditions characterized by cough and presence of mucus. It’s a great drug when used correctly..I wouldn’t take more than 400mg four times a day..Side effects are usually low and might be headache, dizziness, or slight nausea..So small, frequent meals might help..Don’t take it longer than a couple of weeks before you see your doctor again..A Pulmonologist might be help full since this would be their specialty..Good Luck.
