I have had to take cough drops at daily Mass within one hour of receiving communion. Is this wrong?
 
Can. 919 §1. A person who is to receive the Most Holy Eucharist is to abstain for at least one hour before holy communion from any food and drink, except for only water and medicine.
Cough drops used for medicinal purposes are permitted within one hour of receiving Holy Communion.
