Hi Mjpa. The capsules should not make you cough but are designed to thin the mucus so that coughing makes it easier to bring up.

mine do not and the quantity I take (2 x 3 or 4 a day depend on how congested i feel

Look to the right to Related Posts, lots of info on mucodyne/carbocysteine.

I've taken it for years now and it doesn't make me cough.

I have been taken them for a year now, and no longer cough, but I used to.

They made my cough appear worse when I first started taking them as I think they were loosening all the mucus but once I'd been on them a while it improved.

I'm exactly the same but only started them today. Looking forward to 'hopefully' not coughing. How long until you improved?

I was coughing myself sick (literally) before I was put on these. Didn't stop the coughing but did make it productive and helped clear out the lungs and so reduced the amount of coughing overall.

Not what you're looking for?
