Guaifenesin

Guaifenesin, an expectorant, helps loosen congestion in chest and throat, making it easier to cough out thick mucus or phlegm from the airways. It is also combined with dextromethorphan, a cough suppressant or with ephedrine to medicines for symptomatic relief from asthma. Overall, it is used to reduce chest congestion caused by the common cold, infections, or allergies. Its actions as an expectorant it keeps the respiratory tract effectively hydrated and maintains the sol layer that is needed for ciliary clearance. It also reduces the viscosity of respiratory mucus, which makes it easy for the body to expel the mucus or phlegm more easily in the natural body process.

This bark has historically been used as an expectorant in the Caribbean region and adopted by European explorers in the 16the century. But it was not till 1952, that the first medical preparations got their approvals from the FDA in the USA. However, it took a further 20 years before, it was synthesized into tablets for medication.

How does it work?

Guaifenesin properties make it good expectorant. It does this by increasing the volume and reducing the viscosity of secretions in the bronchi and trachea. As a result, it aids in the smooth flow of respiratory tract secretions. The smoother flow allows for ciliary movement to carry the loosened secretions upward toward the pharynx. Eventually, increasing the efficiency of the cough reflex that facilitates removal of the secretions. It also has muscle relaxant and anticonvulsant properties in addition to being an NMDA receptor antagonist.
