🩺 Clinical
Dextromethorphan is used to temporarily relieve cough caused by the common cold, the flu, or other conditions. Dextromethorphan will relieve a cough but will not treat the cause of the cough or speed recovery. Dextromethorphan is in a class of medications called antitussives. It works by decreasing activity in the part of the brain that causes coughing.
Read the full MedlinePlus article ↗This is an over-the-counter film-coated tablet taken by mouth that combines three active ingredients commonly used to help manage cold and cough symptoms. Dextromethorphan is a cough suppressant, while guaifenesin functions as an expectorant to help thin mucus and make it easier to clear from the airways. Phenylephrine is a decongestant typically used to help relieve nasal and sinus congestion. This product is marketed under the FDA's OTC monograph rules for cough and cold medicines.
