What does it do?

Belladonna alkaloids are a mixture of alkaloids extracted from the belladonna plant, primarily used for relieving congestion and suppressing mucus secretion. They belong to the antihistamine class and are used to reduce nasal congestion and excessive mucus secretion in respiratory disorders.

This ingredient inhibits the action of the parasympathetic nervous system, causing the blood vessels in the nasal mucosa to constrict and reducing mucus secretion. As a result, nasal congestion is alleviated, and breathing becomes easier.

Approved uses differ by product. Check each product's information for its actual use.

Good to know

Belladonna alkaloids exist in a mixed form of several alkaloids, leading to a more complex action than a single alkaloid. Unlike other antihistamines, they have a strong inhibitory effect on the parasympathetic nervous system, making them particularly effective in controlling mucus secretion.
