A member asked:

I took 2 maximum strength mucinex dm by accident. will i be okay or do i need to go to the er?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not a problem: There is ample leeway in the dosage for Mucinex. Hopefully the effect you want will come to pass. You can resume normal dosage at ordinary intervals.
