What experts liked
Compared to most other cough syrup options, the Deslym proves to be one of the easiest on the taste buds.
It also uses dextromethorphan to offer cough relief for 12 hours. It is free of sulfites. It’s also alcohol-free.
This is an Extended-Release Suspension meaning it’s released into your system at controlled intervals to ensure you don’t dose off prematurely.
What experts didn't like
This is one of the few formulas that can cause insomnia, so if you’re using it for a chronic cough, you should weigh your options.
It may make you drowsy especially if you overdose.
