Both Tusskan and Notussil are used as cough suppressants. Although both are intended to soothe coughs, they contain different active ingredients that target specific types of coughs or other accompanying symptoms. It is important to understand the pharmacological composition of each to determine which one is best for your situation.
Tusskan Syrup Ingredients
Tuscan syrup typically contains a combination of active ingredients that work to relieve coughs and soothe the throat. These ingredients may include:
Dextromethorphan: A cough suppressant that acts on the cough center in the brain.
Guaifenesin: An expectorant that helps thin mucus and facilitate its expulsion.
Chlorpheniramine: An antihistamine that helps relieve allergy symptoms associated with the cold, such as runny nose and sneezing.
Note: The composition of Tuscan syrup may vary slightly depending on the manufacturer or region.
Notussil Syrup Ingredients
Notussil syrup contains the active ingredient cloprastine hydrochloride. Cloprastin hydrochloride is a cough suppressant that works primarily by inhibiting the cough center in the brain and reducing irritation of cough receptors in the respiratory tract.
