A member asked:
What is the difference between adult's and children's regular robitussin (guaifenesin) syrup?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Strength: Children's products that are patterned after adult ones usually have less, often about half, of the amount of drug in a given volume. The goal is to decrease the chance of overdosing, while applying the assumption that children need less drug for effectiveness than does an adult.
