A similar cough potion goes by the name of Miracle Mouthwash.

It is reported to contain a compounded formula of Dexamethasone + Diphenhydramine + Nystatin + Tetracycline although pharmacists will often report many variations to this.

Another pharmacist reports "The usual concoction contains equal amounts of viscous lidocaine and diphenhydramine for analgesia ... and Maalox or a similar antacid to enhance coating of the ingredients in the mouth. Some also include nystatin to prevent or treat fungal growth ... a corticosteroid to reduce inflammation ... or tetracycline to prevent secondary bacterial infections" [1]

Is the product you're talking about something which can be purchased ready made, or is it a formula which you would ask a pharmacist to put together? Please post back with any other questions you may have about this.
