What is Capmist DM?
Dextromethorphan works as a cough suppressant. It works by affecting the signals that are sent to the brain. Guaifenesin acts as an expectorant. It loosens congestion in the chest and throat, making it easier for you to cough through your mouth.
Pseudoephedrine works as a nasal decongestant by shrinking blood vessels. Dilated blood vessels can cause congestion in the nasal passages. Capmist DM, a combination medication, is used to treat allergies, colds, flus, and congestion in the chest caused by nasal congestion, coughing, and a stuffy nose. Capmist DM does not treat coughs caused by cigarette smoking or asthma. Capmist DM can be used in other ways not mentioned in this guide.
