Guaifenesin

Description:
Guaifenesin, with the CAS number 93-14-1, is an expectorant commonly used in over-the-counter medications to relieve coughs and congestion associated with respiratory conditions. It is a colorless to white crystalline powder that is soluble in water and has a slightly bitter taste. Guaifenesin works by thinning and loosening mucus in the airways, making it easier to cough up and expel. Its chemical formula is C10H14O4, and it has a molecular weight of approximately 198.22 g/mol. The substance is generally well-tolerated, with side effects being rare and typically mild, such as gastrointestinal discomfort or drowsiness. Guaifenesin is often combined with other active ingredients in cough and cold formulations, enhancing its effectiveness in alleviating symptoms. It is important to use guaifenesin as directed, and individuals should consult healthcare professionals if they have underlying health conditions or are taking other medications.
