q.s.

Mechanism of Action: Diphenhydramine is a first-generation antihistamine with antitussive (cough-suppressant) properties. It works by blocking the action of histamine, a chemical involved in the inflammatory response and allergic reactions. In the context of cough syrup, diphenhydramine helps suppress cough reflexes by acting on the central nervous system. Ammonium chloride is an expectorant that works by thinning and loosening mucus in the airways. It helps in the clearance of respiratory secretions by reducing the viscosity of mucus, making it easier to expel. This action is particularly beneficial in conditions associated with productive cough.  Sodium citrate is a mucolytic which thins and loosens mucus (phlegm), making it easier to cough out. Menthol has a soothing effect and acts as a mild local anesthetic. It can provide relief from throat irritation and contribute to a cooling sensation, helping to alleviate discomfort associated with coughing. In combination, these ingredients in Tordryl cough syrup aim to provide a comprehensive approach to cough relief by suppressing cough reflexes, promoting mucus clearance, and soothing throat irritation.
