(MENAFN- EIN Presswire) Cough Syrup Market
The increase in prevalence of respiratory disorder, rise in air pollution, and increase in elderly population further fuel the growth of cough syrup market.
PORTLAND, OREGON, UNITED STATES, March 6, 2023 /einpresswire.com / -- Cough syrup is a medication used to relieve symptoms of cough, including dry cough or a cough with phlegm. It typically contains one or more active ingredients such as dextromethorphan, codeine, or guaifenesin, along with other inactive ingredients like flavoring agents, sweeteners, and preservatives.
Dextromethorphan is a cough suppressant that works by reducing the activity of the cough reflex in the brain. Codeine is also a cough suppressant, but it is a narcotic that can be addictive and is usually only available with a prescription. Guaifenesin is an expectorant that thins the mucus in the airways, making it easier to cough up.
