Why do cough drops make me cough (real bad)?

I have a summer cold - the cough can be terrible. So a helpful co-worker gave me cough drops. I popped one in and my cough became a choking cough. I had to leave go settle down with alot of water.

So later on when I was settled, I thought another drop would be nice now - I took one and then it made me cough hard.

Am I weird or is there something in cough drops that has the opposite impact?

@Linkat,
The menthol is probably too strong for you.

@Butrflynet,
Ok I will stick with whisky - probably at least knock me out.

@Linkat,
The active compound of the cough syrup may be too strong that it may irritate your lungs when you breathe so you are having the cough.
