About Cheston Sugar Free Raspberry Expectorant 60 ml

Cheston Sugar Free Raspberry Expectorant 60 ml belongs to the class of medicines called 'expectorants' primarily used to treat productive cough or cough associated with mucus. Coughing is a body's way of clearing irritants (like allergens, mucus, or smoke) from airways, thereby preventing respiratory infection. There are two types of coughs: Dry cough and Chesty cough. A dry cough doesn't produce any viscous or thick mucus, whereas a chesty cough means mucous or sputum is produced to help clear the airways.

Cheston Sugar Free Raspberry Expectorant 60 ml contains Guaiphenesin, Chlorpheniramine maleate, and Bromhexine hydrochloride. Guaiphenesin increases the volume of fluid in the airways, reduces the stickiness of mucus, and removes it from the airways. Chlorpheniramine maleate works by blocking the action of histamine, a substance responsible for causing allergic reactions. Bromhexine hydrochloride work by thinning and loosening phlegm (mucus). Thereby, it helps to cough out phlegm easily.
