Mucinex use
Medication for sinus drainage, expectorants and guiafenisen products Mucus and saliva secretions are a normal part of human physiology and must be present for the normal mechanisms of swallowing and talking. They are also important for humidifying the air we breathe to protect our lungs. When these secretions remain thin and slippery, everything works well. These secretions cleanse your airway because as they are produced and swallowed, they carry along the dust and dirt that you breathe into your airway. Exposure to cigarette smoke stops this cleaning of your lungs. You can see the effects if you see a picture of a smokers lungs with black lines between where the ribs were where the soot and junk collected. You normally make a very astounding amount of mucus and saliva in your nose, sinuses, mouth, throat and lungs daily. When you complain of "sinus drainage" it is usually when you have allergies, flu or a bad cold or when you are somewhat dehydrated and your normal secretions have become thick and glue-like and thus sticky. Guiafenesin is a product used in many brands of cold remedies because of its ability to thin upper and lower airway secretions. If you have significant allergies, a bad cold or any other illness that causes increased thick mucus secretions in your nose, sinuses, throat and lungs, then you know how bothersome this problem can be. One the problems associated with use of guiafenesin is that the effective dose is very close to its toxic dose. Nausea and ...From:Gorden McMurryViews:0 0ratingsTime:02:56More inEducation
