Recently I caught a bug from some coworkers that left me with a nasty cough.  I had no choice but to purchase something to help calm it, but I wanted to avoid Dextromethorphan because of side effects like lightheadedness, drowsiness or nervousness because I needed to go to work.  In my quest to find this I discovered Olbas Cough Syrup which consists of wildflower honey, herbal extracts and essential oils.  I was a little skeptical at first but decided to try it.  What a surprise!  The natural antioxidants of this Swiss formula really helped and it's safe enough to use whether you're sick or just need some relief from pollutants.  (as someone with a lot of allergies who lives in a big city I can tell you that there's an awful lot in the air that's irritating) I have no problems with taking medicine when I need it, but sometimes these days it almost seems like a lot of "cures" are worse than the disease with all the side effects they have. 

Among the ingredients are thyme and pine which are great for your immune system, licorice which has always been used for help with abnormal productions of mucus, plantain which cleanses the bronchial tubes and horse chestnut which helps with circulation and healthy bronchial tubes, The essential oils include Peppermint, Eucalyptus, Cajeput, Wintergreen, Juniper and Clove.  It was not tested on animals and contains no artificial sweeteners or colors or preservatives or animal ingredients.  It's like something a grandmother might make for you and I found it both tasty and soothing.  It almost seemed too good to be of any real use, but it did calm my painful cough and make my chest feel a lot better.

My husband doesn't like the taste, but he's like a little kid when it comes to meds. This one tastes less medicinal than a lot of them and it's a lot healthier.

Sounds like a good one. I hate yucky tasting cough medicines - and most of them are pretty bad.
