Dynex
Main Ingredients: Guaifenesin + Pseudoephedrine HCl
Dynex is a decongestant and expectorant combination. The expectorant
in Dynex helps loosen the thick mucus that causes chest congestion. The
decongestant in Dynex is used to give relief from stuffy nose, runny
nose, and ear congestion caused by allergies and or the common cold, or
infection. Dynex works by stimulating receptors in the body, mostly in
the lining of the nose and sinuses, causing the blood vessel to contract.
This results in less fluid to pass through into these linings. Dynex
helps relieve the symptoms of nasal congestion by reducing the production
of mucus. This combination does not cure cold or allergy; instead it
provides relief from the symptoms.
