Cough due to allergies has been my nemesis since childhood. I have yet to find an over the counter medication that works.....until today! April 13, 2008, going into the local pharmacy to pick up prescriptions, I took a look at what was on the shelf today as my cough has been keeping me up at night for the past 5 days. There was COUGH MAX and I grabbed it off the shelf, checked out w/ everything and headed for the car where I opened the box and took my 1st quick dissolve tablet and within 5 minutes felt the relief. Thank you so much for creating a medication that is just right for me! No side effects, easy to open package, works fast, tastes good and best of all I never have to worry when my cough is going to start up again.
