Guaifenesin (CAS 93-14-1)
QUICK LINKS
Guaifenesin functions as an expectorant in experimental applications. It acts by increasing the volume and reducing the viscosity of respiratory tract secretions, which helps to loosen and clear mucus from the airways. At the molecular level, guaifenesin works by stimulating the production and secretion of thinner mucus in the respiratory tract, making it easier to expel. Guaifenesin does not directly affect the underlying cause of respiratory conditions, but rather facilitates the removal of mucus from the airways. Guaifenesin′s mechanism of action involves altering the physical properties of mucus, making it less sticky and easier to cough up. Guaifenesin′s function in experimental applications involves its ability to modify the characteristics of respiratory secretions, aiding in the clearance of mucus from the airways.
