1. WHAT UNICOUGH ORAL SOLUTION IS AND WHAT DOES IT DO?
The name of your medicine is Unicough Oral Solution.
It is for the symptomatic relief of common coughs (such as dry and/or
tickly, 
or troublesome cough) associated with upper respiratory tract
congestion. 
It may also be used to aid restful sleep.
The product contains the active ingredients diphenhydramine
hydrochloride, 
ammonium chloride and levomenthol.
Diphenhydramine hydrochloride is an antihistamine that possesses
antitussive, 
antihistaminic, and anticholinergic properties and suppresses the urge
to cough.  
It also dries up secretions in the nose and chest. Experiments have
shown  
that the antitussive effect is discrete from its sedative effect.
Taken at night will 
assist sleeping.
Ammonium chloride is an expectorant that helps loosen phlegm and
catarrh.
Levomenthol relieves the discomfort of congestion and also provides a
cooling 
effect in mouth and throat.
Unicough Oral Solution is a thick demulcent, which in the buccal
cavity and  
throat forms a soothing film over the mucous membrane. This brings it
into 
contact with the sensitive nerve endings of the throat lining.
