About Suntuss CR Sugar Free Congestion Relief Oral Liquid 100 ml

Suntuss CR Sugar Free Congestion Relief Oral Liquid 100 ml belongs to the class of medicines called ‘expectorants’ primarily used to treat cough associated with mucus. Coughing (dry or productive) is a body’s way of clearing irritants (like allergens, mucus, or smoke) from airways and preventing infection. There are two types of coughs, namely: Dry cough and chesty cough. A dry cough is tickly and doesn't produce any vicious or thick mucus, while a chesty cough (wet cough) means mucous or sputum is produced to help clear your airways.

Suntuss CR Sugar Free Congestion Relief Oral Liquid 100 ml is a combination of two drugs: Ambroxol (mucolytic agent) and Guaifenesin (expectorant). Ambroxol belongs to the class of mucolytic agents (cough/sputum thinner) that works by thinning and loosening phlegm (mucus) in the lungs, windpipe, and nose. Guaifenesin belongs to the class of expectorants that increase the volume of fluid in the airways, reduce mucus stickiness, and remove it from airways.

Disease/Condition Glossary

Cough: Coughing is a body’s way of clearing irritants (like allergens, mucus, or smoke) from airways and preventing infection. Coughs may be dry or productive. A productive cough (wet cough) brings up sputum (phlegm, mucus, and other matter) from the lungs. Cough is commonly caused as a response to allergy or viral infection but coughing up mucus is possibly an indication of infection in the respiratory tract. If you are coughing thick, solid white mucus, you may have a bacterial infection in the airways. If the mucus is clear or light-colored, you may have allergies or a minor infection in the respiratory tract, and yellow or green mucus indicates a respiratory infection.
