I've been dealing with persistent chest congestion for a while now, and my doctor recommended Mucus Relief DM Max 60mg-1200mg Tab. I'm curious to know if anyone else has tried this medication and how effective it has been for them. The description of the medicine provides a lot of information, but I'd love to hear from real people who have used it. Has anyone experienced more relief from the Dextromethorphan or the Guaifenesin in the medication? What were the side effects like?

I've been struggling with chest congestion and cough due to a persistent cold. My doctor prescribed Cough/Chest Cong DM Syrup, which contains Guaifenesin to thin mucus and Dextromethorphan to reduce coughing. Has anyone else tried this? I'm wondering about its effectiveness and any side effects I should watch out for. The package insert mentions some severe allergic reactions, so I'm a bit concerned. Any insights or personal experiences would be greatly appreciated to manage my expectations! Also, should I be worried about other side effects even if they don't sound as scary?
