Global Patient Feedback for Mucinex (Guaifenesin)
Please see our forum guidelines.
I have been taking high doses of it for my fibromyalgia for ten years. It is the only thing that works. I can't take the medications like Lyrica because of allergic reactions, but I have never had any side effects with the guaifenesin. I stopped taking it once because it went off my insurance formulary and had an awful relapse. I now buy it in generic form cheap from Costco. It makes living an almost normal life possible. I recommend asking you rheumatologist about it; it gave me back my life.

This medication works great! I've had phenomia four times. It clears my chest whenever it starts to clog up. I highly recommend it.

I have been using this medication for 1 week for sinus drainage and mucus due to allergies and bronchitis. It has helped alot with no side effects.
