This combination medication is used to relieve coughs caused by the common cold, bronchitis, and other breathing illnesses.

Despite the fact that Maximum Strength Robitussin is typically more expensive than regular strength Robitussin Cough+Chest Congestion DM, Maximum Strength Robitussin contains half the amount of cough suppressant per 10 ml and the same amount of expectorant per 10 ml as Regular Strength Robitussin.

Cough suppressants: Dextromethorphan is the only OTC cough suppressant available. It usually takes around 15 to 30 minutes to start working. Antihistamines: Older antihistamines, like diphenhydramine, and newer antihistamines, like loratadine (Claritin), both take about the same time to kick in.

Active Ingredients:

• Dextromethorphan HBr, USP 20 mg - Cough suppressant.
• Guaifenesin, USP 400 mg - Expectorant.

Each formulated with a fresh berry flavor and strong soothing action, our tag team of Robitussin DM Max cough liquids provide effective relief all day or all night. DAYTIME: This product contains the active ingredient Dextromethorphan HBr and Guaifenesin.

Do not take more than the recommended dose. Every 6 to 8 hours orally when necessary. Stop use and consult your doctor if you have a cough that persists for more than one week, tends to recur or is accompanied by fever rash or persistent headache. These could be signs of a serious condition.
