The active ingredient quenches the urge to cough by paralysing the cough centre in the brain. However, to prevent mucus from building up in the airways, the substance is only suitable if the cough is completely dry. Anyone who overdoses on the substance runs the risk of provoking a blockage of the airways or finding it difficult to breathe.
