12-Hour Cough Medicine*
Delsym^® was one of the leading pioneers in developing long-lasting cough syrup in the 1980s. It is now the #1 12-hour cough medicine with an alcohol-free, sulfate-free formulation.

How It Works
Delsym^® contains dextromethorphan polisterex, the active ingredient that helps quiet your cough by suppressing your cough reflex.

• Coughing helps clear mucus and other matter (inhaled irritants) from the throat and lungs.
  
  Remember to help decrease the spread of germs by covering your mouth and nose with a tissue when you cough and always putting your used tissue in the waste basket when finished. If you don’t have a tissue, cough or sneeze into your upper sleeve, not your hands.
  
  Always clean your hands after coughing or sneezing. It is best to frequently wash with soap and water or use a hand sanitizer.
• What Makes You Cough
  
  When you have a cough or cold, coughing expels the excess mucus/phlegm that builds up in your lungs. You don’t have to be sick to cough. Dust, pollen, smoke, and strong odors all can trigger a cough. Even if you’re not spreading germs, it’s a good idea to cover your mouth anyway.
  
  How to Care for a Cough
  
  If you have a serious, persistent cough, check with your healthcare provider. But if your cough is just starting, or if it’s mild and doesn’t bother you too much, here’s what you can do: drink lots of fluids; get plenty of rest, even if you don’t feel sick; and consider an over-the-counter cough medicine like Delsym^® to relieve your cough.
  
  Check the Delsym^®label for more information and talk to your pharmacist or healthcare provider to find out which medicine is best for you.
