Fdixon — would you mind asking your doctor tomorrow “why” exactly it is not good for us to take regularly?
Thanks!

@cate123456 I'm adding that question to my "list" of questions for tomorrow. Sometimes you have to push a little to get it all figured out. Thanks.

@cate123456 I saw the pulmonary doc this morning and ask him about Mucinex. He said he has patients that swear by the benefits of Mucinex but he said the studies do not support it for NTM patients. I asked if taking it regularly might cause "drying" things out and that could be a possible downside. He said if I wanted to try for myself, he's OK with that whether it is regularly or on a sort of as need basis. Based on that, I plan to use it when the cough gets rough and I don't seem to be able to "clear" or cough stuff out. I really need some good news on how to feel better. Blessings to us all.
