Guaifenesin 06/14/08
Reviewed by:
Location Not Given
I have been on and then off and then back on guaifenesin for several years and I also go back to guaifenesin because before Mucinex became available, there was a previous guaifenesin by presciption only that really helped my fibromyalgia. But Mucinex does not help... plus it is expensive. I do find that occasionally, Robitussion brands of guaifenesin help more so that doing nothing.

worste treatment for fmsi have ever tried for over 11/17/06
Reviewed by:
Location Not Given
This treatment is really horrible and hard to do one on the worst things i have ever used for fms/cfs i used for many years without any help from it - I was worse after than before - there are now much better things to use i thing for fms/cfs than guaifenesin. It is a cruel hard treatment. I´m much better off using another treatment no guaifenesin.
