Hey young man, I hesitated to even jump into this.....
as COPD is such a serious and threatening condition.
And, using cough drops is only trying to mask the
underlying cause.
However, if looking for some serious cough syrup
to help ---- you may want to get a prescript. for
BEHIND THE COUNTER stuff. Much is now considered
narcotic --- but, it might help out.
The over the counter stuff really is not going to
give a whole lot of relief, I don't believe.
But ---- best to check with DOC !
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
Yeats
