Expectorants are used to treat a productive or chesty cough, in which phlegm is coughed up.Expectorants such as guaifenesin are thought to work by stimulating receptors in the stomach, causing a reflex increase in the volume of fluid produced in the airways. This decreases the thickness of the secretions in the airways, thus loosening phlegm and making it easier to cough up.What is it used forChesty coughs in children over six years of age.
