If you're having trouble sleeping because of your cough, you can take Mucinex DM (guaifenesin / dextromethorphan) about 30 minutes before bedtime, so it starts working to help you rest through the night.

You can use Mucinex throughout the day, but you typically use NyQuil at night to help you sleep and let your body recover. The ingredient doxylamine in NyQuil also causes drowsiness to help you get rest. Mucinex and NyQuil Cold & Flu are only for people 12 years and older.

Does Mucinex DM keep you awake? Mucinex DM can cause sleepiness and insomnia. Some people experience sleeplessness if they take it in the late afternoon. Try to take it 30 minutes before bedtime if you are having trouble sleeping due to excessive coughing.
