Expectorants are of two types:
mucolytics: which thin out tenacious mucoid secretions in the airways
mucokinetics or âexpectorantsâ: they help the clearance of mucus by making coughing easier
both should not be prescribed in dry cough as they are known to aggravate cough.
However, wet cough is due to the secretions in the airways and should never be suppressed. Mucokinetics are used in this case which makes coughing easier.
Mucokinetics are not combined with antitussives....more
