Default Re: Cough syrup??

If you go in the diabetic section of any pharmacy, you will find cough syrups that do not have sugar in them. A brand I read about on the Board is Robistussin Cough & Cold CF; it contains glycerol, sorbitol and sucralose (Splenda): Robitussin®: Wyeth Consumer Healthcare You could also use the capsule formula insead of the syrups; an example is DayQuil LiquiCaps: http://www.vicks.com/products/dayquil-liquicaps

Depending on your CCLL, a regular cough syrup can through you out of ketosis and cause cravings.

Imagine that you're doing great, losing weight, feeling better than ever, thrilled with yourself, hearing compliments from friends and acquaintances---and then it happens! Despite all your good intentions, you're mightily tempted by a food you're not supposed to have. What to do? I'll tell you this: You'd better have a strategy ready!"

When I caught 2 bad colds in the space of 4 weeks from my adorable niece and nephew I used Robitussin sugar free cough syrup which didn't effect me at all. A bit expensive for such a small bottle but it was better than suffering.
