How Tussin Syrup works

Tussin Syrup combines five medicines: Cetirizine, Phenylephrine, Ambroxol, Guaifenesin, and Sodium citrate. Cetirizine blocks the effects of histamine, a chemical the body produces in response to allergens. It helps to reduce allergy symptoms, such as sneezing, runny nose, and itchy or watery eyes. Phenylephrine is a decongestant that constricts blood vessels in the nasal passages, reducing swelling and congestion. Ambroxol, guaifenesin, and sodium citrate work by thinning and loosening the mucus in the airways and clearing congestion.

  • If you are drowsy after taking Tussin Syrup, you should not drive or operate machinery.
  • Inform your doctor if you have a history of stomach ulcers or asthma.
  • Inform your doctor if you are taking any other medications, such as those for depression.
