Mucinex is recommended due to it having guaifenesin, it helps loosen up the mucus.
Phenylephrine is the stuff that doesn't work, but it is usually found in Mucinex too.
Generic Guaifenesin syrup, ask the pharmacist. It's OTC but sometimes it's behind the counter
Phenylephrine isn't the only OTC medication that doesn't work.
That study was specific to cold and flu treatments, it wasn't saying the medicines listed don't work at all for treating other issues.
