    This is wild; I’ve used Luden’s my whole life, not for coughs but sore throats. The active ingredient nowadays is fruit pectin; basically it’s a cherry candy but sucking on the candy helps temporarily relieve the sore throat. Very curious they don’t mention the previous opioid formulation on their Wikipedia page!
