COMPOSITION
Each 5ml contains:
• Active Ingredient: Guaifenesin 100mg
• Preservative: Sodium Benzoate 5mg
ROUTE OF ADMINISTRATION
Oral
PHARMACODYNAMICS
Guaifenesin is an expectorant which is thought to act by irritating
the gastric mucosa and subsequently stimulating respiratory tract
secretions. This increase in fluid increases the volume and
decreases the viscosity of bronchial secretions.
PHARMACOKINETICS
Guaifenesin is well absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. It is
metabolised and then excreted in the urine. The half-life in
plasma is approximately 1 hour.

with
certain

of
5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA) and vanillylmandelic acid
(VMA).
Guaifenesin could interfere with the diagnosis of carcinoid
