A little but not much. LoM came up with some cough medicine that does wonders and sometimes even lasts the four-hour period.
Ricola cherry drops are what does it for me. Or Luden’s or Smith Brothers, if you can find them. The cough syrups usually have too many additives for me.
I can’t even take NyQuil. It stupefies me for almost 36 hours after one dose.
