Treatment Information
Overview
Benylin Mucus Cough Max Methnol/Honey & Lemon Flavour Syrup is a maximum strength syrup that relieves the symptoms of chesty coughs. This syrup works by thinning the mucus in the chest, making it easier to cough it up. The ingredient guaifenesin acts as an expectorant and reduces the thickness of the phlegm making it easier to clear.
Benylin Mucus Cough syrup is more helpful when mucus builds up in the chest and becomes hard to clear through coughing alone.
