Cough and phlegm are symptoms that occur in the respiratory tract, often resulting from inflammation or irritation of the bronchi. These symptoms may commonly appear in respiratory diseases such as colds, bronchitis, or pneumonia. Medications that relieve cough and phlegm reduce inflammation in the respiratory tract and thin the phlegm, making it easier to expel. Therefore, it is used for symptoms of cough and phlegm.
