How Victokof-L Sugar Free Oral Suspension 100 ml Works

The active compound Victokof-L Sugar Free Oral Suspension 100 ml in this medicine is levocloperastine, which works through a dual-action mechanism to quiet your cough. First, it acts centrally by calming the cough centre in the brain, which reduces the intensity and frequency of the signals that trigger a dry, tickling cough. Second, it works peripherally in your airways as an antihistamine and muscle relaxant, soothing the localised irritation and spasms in your throat and bronchi. This dual action helps relieve the dry cough reflex without suppressing your natural ability to clear your airways when necessary.
