Dextromethorphan + Guaifenesin + Terpin Hydrate

This combination medication is formulated to provide relief from cough and chest congestion associated with common colds, bronchitis, and other respiratory conditions. Dextromethorphan acts as a cough suppressant, guaifenesin serves as an expectorant to loosen mucus, and terpin hydrate helps to thin bronchial secretions, facilitating easier breathing

This medication combines three active ingredients:​

• Dextromethorphan: A cough suppressant that acts on the brain’s cough center to reduce the urge to cough.​

• Guaifenesin: An expectorant that helps loosen and thin mucus in the airways, making it easier to cough up.​

• Terpin Hydrate: An expectorant that aids in thinning bronchial secretions, facilitating mucus clearance.​

Together, these components work synergistically to alleviate coughing and ease breathing by addressing both the cough reflex and mucus congestion.​

How It Works

• Dextromethorphan suppresses the cough reflex by acting on the central nervous system.​

• Guaifenesin reduces the viscosity of mucus, promoting its expulsion from the respiratory tract.​

• Terpin Hydrate further assists in thinning mucus, enhancing the expectorant effect.​

This combination provides comprehensive relief by addressing both the symptoms and underlying causes of productive coughs.​

Who Should Use It?

This medication is suitable for adults and children over the age of 12 experiencing:​

• Persistent coughs associated with colds or bronchitis.​
