BENYLIN® Chesty Coughs Original Medicine

What it does:

BENYLIN® Chesty Coughs Original provides deep penetrating relief and a soothing effect that allows you to get on with your day

How it works:

Active ingredient diphenhydramine hydrochloride is an antihistamine and works by relieving a cough.

Diphenhydramine also helps dry nasal secretions by preventing the natural body chemical histamine from binding to its receptors and producing a runny nose.

Levomenthol works to relieve stuffiness in the nose to help make breathing easier.

What is a chesty cough?

Chesty coughs are caused by a build-up of phlegm in the lungs and on the chest.

The cough mechanism kicks in to try and get rid of this excess mucus.
