Did not work

I received the cough syrup and while it did not taste too bad it did not do anything to reduce or relieve any of my children’s symptoms. I’ve had more success with just giving my children honey to help ease their coughs and it is a fraction of the price

Tastes Almost as Bad As Buckleya

The packaging was great and I love the look of the container, how it resembles a honey comb. It looks very kid friendly but once the bottle was opened that was proved very fast to not be the case. The smell sets you off right away and the taste is very unpleasant. They have seemed to do their research and have great ingredients but the smell and taste just is a hard thing to get around

Worked slowly

I started giving this to my child when he got cold and cough. It didn’t do anything drastically, this worked quite slowly. One can give this syrup when there is mild cold and cough as it cannot help in viral cold and cough.

Not Effective

My children hated the taste of this cough medicine and I don’t think it helped with their cough. I tried twice and they wouldn’t drink it a third time.

Not for us

I think this product would be good for someone else's kids. For mine it did not really help, at lest not on his last cold. My son did take it without problems so that tells me that the flavor is good.

Too thick and burning aftertaste

My 2 year old gets coughs and colds a lot from daycare. I was excited for him to try Zarbee's since its made with natural ingredients and I actually know what they are. He had a cold last week so I gave him a dose of the cough syrup. He immediately started coughing and couldn't stop coughing until he threw up. The second and third times I gave it to him on the proceeding days, he again had coughing fits and needed water to clear his throat. I tried some myself and its quite thick due to the honey. It also leaves a burning after taste in my throat which made me cough and need water to clear. I can't speak to the effectiveness of this product since I had to stop giving it to him. Overall I was not a fan of this product and will not be giving it to him again.

I wanted to love it!!

After receiving my FREE sample of Zarbee’s Cough + Mucus Syrup from Butterly I was thrilled to try it. It couldn’t have come at a better time as my little is sick. I wanted to love this product as products for children under 6 are hard to come by. However, I wasn’t able to put this product to test to its full potential. After numerous attempts of trying to administer to my child he kept gagging and eventually puked. The taste just isn’t it for a child. I would still recommend this product to those who have little children that can tolerate cough medicine tastes better. I love the fact it contains natural ingredients such as honey and elderberry, even English Ivy leaf. As a parent we know how important it is to give our littles the best especially when under the weather. Zarbee’s also offers their products with no dyes, or artificial sweeteners or alcohol which that alone is a selling point for myself. So although our experience wasn’t great, I cannot disclaim the effectiveness of the cough syrup. I would still suggest this product as a natural cough medicine for ones kiddo.
