Another Robitussin question

I know this has been answered before but I never really paid much attention to the whole Robitussin thing bc I havent typically had any CM issues (TMI). However, I've been feeling a bit on the "dry side" and I'm not sure which Robitussin is the right one to take. I have the DM Max (green label) cough and chest congestion. Is that ok? Is there an ingredient that I don't want in it??

TIA

Re: Another Robitussin question

you can only use the ones that are labeled "expectorant" - if it says "suppressant" it will dry out your CM. expectorant thins it out. plain DM (i don't know about DM Max) is what you should be looking for.

I could have sworn it was the plain one, meaning the one with no letters after the "Robitussin"... although I haven't checked to see so I can't be sure about the DM letters.

It definitely has to be the one where the only ingredient is Gaifenesin. That is the expectorant which will thin out your CM.

I'll take a look for that while I'm out and about today. Today is CD 9 so I am going to start testing with the CBEDFM. DH and I already BD'd yesterday and today, although I don't think I will be O'ing until Tues or Wed. But hey, we are off to a good start this month
