It is the year 2008.

Can't they make a cough and cold medicine that doesn't taste like ass??

It has to taste bad enough to deter recreational use. Some of them like Ny-Quil do come in liquid-caps.

Or... my hot toddy for bad colds:

1 dollop honey
1 ounce spirits of your choice [brandy, whisky, etc.]
1/2 tsp. ground ginger
1/2 lemon squeezed
Put into a coffee mug and fill with water as hot as you can stand.
Mix and chug it before your taste buds realize what's going on.

You won't mind being sick, and the ginger and lemon cut the phlegm so you can sleep.

A lot of people keep saying things like this. I keep wondering how it is that people know what ass tastes like ... :-D

I have to agree with Selenesue... liquid-caps. They work on the issue without the retched taste. For the throat soothing, the hot toddy.

The Day-Quil liquicaps are usually my friend. They don't do much for coughs though.

Robutussin makes a liquicap cough med that I've found works pretty well. Good luck.
