tomc12 Posted February 23, 2007 Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 I'm not sure about Venos, but many of the products from Beechams do not contain a cough suppressant. Look for a cough/cold product that contains dextromethorphan(DM). Codeine is another good cough suppressant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiLeakHunt Posted February 23, 2007 Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 Get a few good porno's and wank yourself daft until the cough subsides, it might not get rid of it but at least you'll have done something constructive with your time.

Denarius Posted February 25, 2007 Report Share Posted February 25, 2007 Slippery Elm cough drops are good. If you can't find that then sucking on hard candy might help. It generates saliva which will help to keep your throat moist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
junglesoup Posted February 25, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2007 Thanks for all the suggestions fellas. Its faded out abit now. Trebor extra strong mints off all things seemed to help it, along with hot drinks and cough bottle. Phew... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
