    • ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Better than the name brand (and way cheaper)
Size: 100 Count (Pack of 1)
I picked up Amazon Basic Care Guaifenesin 600 mg Extended-Release hoping it would be a solid substitute for the name-brand version, and honestly, I like it more. It works just as well (if not better) at loosening mucus and helping my cough feel more productive, and I don’t feel like I’m paying extra just for packaging. What I liked: Works well: Noticeable relief and it does what guaifenesin is supposed to do. Quality: Feels comparable to the name brand in every way. Ease of swallow: The tablets are easy enough to take with water and don’t have a weird taste. Value: Same active ingredient, same dose, extended-release, for a much better price. This is my go-to from now on. If you usually buy the name brand, this is an easy switch. ... show more

    • Same effect, same medicine, fraction of the cost
Size: 20 Count (Pack of 1)
Mucus products can be incredibly expensive. Amazon never fails to offer a high quality product at a fraction of the cost of name brands. This works and it works well. And it doesn't require trying to adjust other expenses to pay for it. Which is how Healthcare should be. This is the same guafenesin as the other brand, but better since I pay so much less. Thank you Amazon! ... show more

    • Cleared my sinuses. And my schedule
Size: 60 Count (Pack of 1)
I took Mucus ER expecting it to gently help me breathe. Instead, it declared war on my lungs and won by total evacuation. Roughly two hours after swallowing the pill (which, by the way, is the size of a small barge), I began coughing with the enthusiasm of a Victorian orphan with plot relevance. My sinuses emptied, my chest loosened, and I may have achieved a minor exorcism. This stuff works. It doesn’t ask for permission. It kicks open the door and starts packing your mucus’s bags. Why 4 stars? Because while it did its job, it also had some… unintended side effects. I coughed so hard I questioned several life decisions. I became personally acquainted with a tissue box. My coworkers asked if I was okay, and I replied only in wet, productive coughs. Still, I could finally breathe. Would I take it again? Yes. But only if I have nothing else planned for the next six hours except rewatching my regrets and hydrating aggressively. ... show more

    • Works good
Size: 42 Count (Pack of 1)
This helped a lot when I had a bad chest cold. The price is better than those sold in my local stores. And who feels like getting out to shop when your hacking up a lung and have a fever? Good product for a fair price.

    • No child safe lid, medication works well
Size: 20 Count (Pack of 1)
The medication works fine, but the container does not have a child safe lid, which was disappointing.
