HOW CORIZA EXPECTORANT WORKS
Coriza Expectorant is a combination of four medicines: Ambroxol, Guaiphenesin, Menthol, and Terbutaline. Ambroxol functions as a mucolytic agent, effectively thinning and loosening mucus (phlegm), thereby facilitating easier expectoration. Guaifenesin acts as an expectorant, reducing the stickiness of airway secretions and promoting their removal from the airways. Menthol, an organic compound, provides a cooling sensation and helps relieve minor throat irritation. Terbutaline, on the other hand, functions as a bronchodilator, relaxing the muscles in the airways and widening them, which collectively aids in easing breathing.
