COFDEX P LIQUID belongs to the class of medications called ‘Expectorant and Cough products’ used in the treatment of dry cough associated with cold/flu, allergies, and throat irritants. A cough is a reflex action that helps to clear any foreign irritant or mucus in the throat. Dry cough refers to a cough with no mucus (sputum) or secretions. A dry cough is mostly treated with cough suppressants and throat lozenges.
COFDEX P LIQUID contains Bromhexine, Dextromethorphan, and Phenylpropanolamine. Bromhexine is an expectorant/mucolytic agent which thins mucus (phlegm) making it cough out easily. Dextromethorphan is a cough suppressant and acts by blocking the action of the cough centre in the brain that is responsible for the cough reflex. Phenylpropanolamine is a decongestant that narrows the small blood vessels providing relief from congestion or stuffiness in the nose.
