📋Overview
Guaifenesin is a medication commonly used to help loosen and thin mucus in the airways. It is often associated with the relief of chest congestion caused by colds, infections, or allergies. By making mucus less sticky, it can make it easier to clear from the respiratory tract. Guaifenesin is frequently found in over-the-counter cough and cold remedies.
