A member asked:

What additional cough medicine can i take on top of theraflu cold and cough nighttime?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Dextromethorphan: Whichever cold compounds you take will be more effective in controlling cough if they contain dextromethorphan, and these are usually marked "dm" on the bottle.
