This time he developed severe diarrhea with nausea and dizziness. He hasn't been this sick in years. We thought he might have food poisoning. He couldn't go to work.

This time he developed severe diarrhea with nausea and dizziness. He hasn't been this sick in years. We thought he might have food poisoning. He couldn't go to work. Finally I found this site and others reporting these symptoms. At least we know the cause, but we were surprised by the severity of these side effects. I threw away the rest of the medicine. Unfortunately this is extended release so he will likely be sick the rest of the day!

It did finally kick in and I did sleep but when I woke up I had bad pain in my stomach. Then spent a good 30 minutes to an hour with multiple trips to the bathroom with watery explosive diarrhea.Not to mention this product is not cheap. If I wanted an enema I could have spent way less money!

I have never had an allergic reaction before to any food or medicine. I felt light headed after I took it and woke up the next morning, 12 hours after taking with with painful, puffy eyes that were difficult to open due to swelling and was tingly all over my body. I also had intense hives for 4 days and after 7days the hives are almost gone. The puffy eyes lasted three days. Mucinex did not provide relief from my bronchitis. From research it seems many people have suffered negative side effects from this drug. I would not recommend taking it. It’s not worth the risk.
