    what does it do? I honestly dont know, I havent looked it up.

    just to say, you taking it and believing it has an effect is not proof. large, well regulated, double blind studies are proof.

    if you take it and it does something for you thats good and all you need to know, but it aint proof.

    thats reaaaal similar to people who took Ivermectin when they had covid who recovered from covid and say “thats proof Ivermectin cures covid”

      It thins out mucus. The fact that it works very well for me is absolutely proof that it works. I started taking it on recommendation from my doctor. Please explain to me how this is at all analagous to people taking horse ivermectin after doctors denied giving them a prescription?

      Edit to add: guaifenisin is the main ingredient in Mucinex, to those who aren’t familiar

        I take guaifenisn to combat dry sinuses, and it’s helpful there for me. But I’m not sure I’ve seen a difference in on-label use.

        Unfortunately I deal with frequent nosebleeds and sinus headaches from dryness, and there aren’t a lot of options that work well for me

        lots of doctors gave, and are still giving out ivermeticin on prescription. just the ones who ignore the clinical evidence.

        look I’m not saying it doesnt seem to work for you. I’m saying one person taking any med and seeing results is not “proof”, other than for yourself, but thats really all you need to worry about so it doesnt matter.

          Guaifenisin aka Mucinex is an FDA approved drug. Maybe you should look it up since you clearly don’t know anything about it? Or just take the word of a stranger on the Internet who says they went to pharmacy school eight years ago

            hey, I wasnt taking anyone’s word for anything. I was only saying one person’s experience isn’t proof, and I stand by that.

            I do owe you an apology though, it was late at night and I misunderstood- I confused guaifenisin with phenylephrine, so we were talking about different things which was totally my fault
