Guaifenesin is an expectorant used to relieve chest congestion by thinning and loosening mucus in the airways, making it easier to cough up and clear the respiratory tract. It is commonly included in over-the-counter cough and cold remedies. Guaifenesin works by increasing the volume and reducing the viscosity of respiratory secretions, promoting more effective clearing of mucus and helping to alleviate symptoms associated with respiratory infections and bronchitis.
