    R.05   Drugs used for cough and colds

    Pharmacodynamics:

    Dextromethorphan blocks glutamatergic NMDA receptors in various structures of the brain, including in the cough center (noncompetitive blockade of the ion channel) of the brainstem, the agonist σ1- and σ2receptors of the brain (a hallucinogenic effect), as a result, suppresses the excitability of the cough center in the brain, inhibiting the cough reflex.

    Terpinhydrate stimulates the secretory function of the epithelial glands of the respiratory tract, increases the amount of secretion and promotes the dilution of the secreted secret, provides protection of the inflamed respiratory epithelium from direct contact with the external environment, contributing to the acceleration of the healing processes.

    Levomenthol displays an antispasmodic effect, which helps alleviate the symptoms of pharyngitis, rhinitis, bronchitis and laryngitis.

Maximum concentration in blood plasma - In 2 hours. The onset of action is 10-30 minutes after admission, duration - for 5-6 hours in adults and up to 6-9 hours for children.

    Terpinhydrate is rapidly and completely absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract, circulates in the blood in an unchanged form, is eliminated through the secretion of the epithelium of the respiratory tract cells, as well as with urine and sweat, the other part is oxidized and excreted in the urine in the form of phenols.
