Sandy,

I'm so happy it's working for your Lindsay. The dextromethorphan I was referring to is not supposed to have any alcohol either so it may be an option if some people want to try it and a bit less expensive, there are also generic tablets but only 10mg. These are 15mg http://www.drugstore.com/qxp85584/ro...obitussin+gels

I'm assuming this is not as potent as what Lindsay is taking but I'm hoping 3 a day will have some benefit anyway.

She is only taking that and cymbalta. There is no codine in it either. There are always mixed messages with medications. But, it is working for my daughter at this point in time and I am very happy. The over the counter has alcohol in it. The compounded one does not. Therefore there is not side effects from it. She does get a little dizzy sometimes after she takes it. Hope this helps.
