Cough Pills
Cough less and experience a clearer, more comfortable throat with CVS Pharmacy's range of effective cough pills. These products help relieve dry or chesty coughs caused by allergies or viral illnesses, such as a cold or influenza, giving you a much-needed break from symptoms.
What Are the Best Over-the-Counter Cough Pills?
The best cough pills to take depend on the cause of your cough and whether you can feel mucus in your throat. If your cough is dry, you may experience a sore or scratchy throat with it. Single-ingredient products, such as CVS Health Tussin Cough gels, or cough and sore throat pill combinations, such as Tylenol Cold + Flu, work well to help ease the dry cough and stop your throat from hurting.
If you have a chesty cough, the fluid in your throat is likely contributing to your urge to cough, and product formulations including an expectorant, such as Mucinex DM 12-Hour Max Strength, may be more effective. These products help thin mucus and make it easier to clear your throat. Many also contain a cough suppressant ingredient to help relieve the constant urge to cough and allow you to rest.
As coughs are often a symptom of viral illnesses, cold and flu medicines frequently include ingredients to ease coughing. Taking one of these medications can also help relieve headaches, congestion, sneezing and other symptoms. They may even aid sleep, making them great for managing mild illnesses at home.
Do Cough and Sore Throat Pills Make You Drowsy?
Cough medicine formulas vary a lot and may contain several other ingredients, including antihistamines, painkillers and decongestants, some of which may cause drowsiness. Generally, the product information states whether it's for day or nighttime use and how likely it is to cause sedation.
Some products, such as Vicks DayQuil and NyQuil Severe Cold & Flu or Tylenol Extra Strength Cold + Flu Relief, include two preparations. The day formula may contain a cough suppressant and expectorant plus a painkiller and decongestant, while the night formula may also include an antihistamine. These products make it easy to avoid drowsiness at work while helping you sleep comfortably through the evening.
