Rubitussin is Dextormethorphan, a suppresent.
They are 2 different drugs.
Now, Mucinex DM has Dextormethorphan added to it. And Rubitussin DM has Guaifenesin added to it. So Mucinex DM and Rubitussin DM are the same thing. But Mucinex and Rubitussin are not.
Robitussin is guaifenesin: https://www.drugs.com/robitussin.html
Read the label!

Ah, ok. I was referring to this Rubitussin: https://www.robitussin.com/products/12-h...ugh-relief ..it's Dextormethorphan. I thought this was the original Rubi, but I guess not.
Anyway, that's^ the one I was referring to when I said I use Tessalon for cough supression because "Rubitussin doesnt do shit."
The Mucinex D I just take for draining mucus and decongestion, not cough.

"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
