How Guaifenesin+Ambroxol+Chlorpheniramine+Phenylephrine+Menthol works
This is a combination of five medicines: Guaifenesin, Ambroxol, Chlorpheniramine, Phenylephrine and Menthol which relieve cold symptoms. Guaifenesin is an expectorant which works by decreasing the stickiness of airway secretions and helps in their removal from the airways. Ambroxol is a mucolytic which thins and loosens mucus (phlegm), making it easier to cough out. Chlorpheniramine is an antiallergic which relieves allergy symptoms like runny nose, watery eyes and sneezing. Phenylephrine is a decongestant which narrows the small blood vessels providing relief from congestion or stuffiness in the nose. Menthol is an organic compound which produces a sensation of coolness and relieves minor throat irritation.
