Benzonatate is an antitussive ingredient that acts to suppress coughing.
MFDS ingredient code M086520
Benzonatate is classified as an antitussive and expectorant ingredient, used in medications to relieve coughing. It primarily aims to reduce unnecessary coughing by suppressing the cough reflex.
Benzonatate works by anesthetizing the sensory nerves of the airways, which suppresses the cough reflex. As a result, the stimuli transmitted to the cough center are reduced, leading to less coughing.
Approved uses differ by product. Check each product's information for its actual use.
Unlike antitussives that act directly on the central nervous system, benzonatate is characterized by its ability to anesthetize the peripheral nerves of the airways. This results in relatively fewer side effects and effective cough control.
