expectorant

Expectorant: Anise can be used as an expectorant to increase productive cough.

It is said to act as an expectorant (helps you cough up gunk) and, topically, is soothing to skin.

Weed is neither, and actually also has expectorant qualities, so you tend to cough most of the tar back up.

A few over-the-counter supplements you might try: * Mucinex D - an expectorant; common name 'guaifenesin'.

Claritest - Contains diphenhydramine hydrochloride, which is an expectorant and cold and allergy relief medicine.

Zyrtec - Contains diphenhydramine hydrochloride, which is an expectorant and antispasmodic medication for motion sickness.

The other ingredients, like the expectorant, in stuff like Nyquil would probably just make you sick drinking a lot of it...

Your entire comment is nothing more than the expectorant of a right-wing radio host.

The virus also survives In the wild for a while, so anything coated with influenza expectorant that gets touched becomes a disease vector.

So it's just as useful in prevention as decongestants, cough drops, expectorant, and other such drugs: not at all.

The other two essentials IMO are an expectorant and a cough suppressant.

Maybe you could get the expectorant effect without taking in carcinogenic smoke.

Appropriately, "Expectorant" also refers to a medication which helps produce mucus.

Part of the problem is that a lot of the literature uses the word "expectorant" in the same way I used it above, but really, the more appropriate word to describe guaifenesin is "Secretolytic".
