What is Butamirate Citrate used for?

Tussin (Butamirate Citrate) is commonly used to temporarily relieve dry, hacking coughs that disrupt daily activities.

The medication is non-sedating for most people, allowing daytime use without drowsiness. Effects are temporary and meant for short-term symptom control.

What precautions apply to Butamirate Citrate?

Store Tussin at room temperature away from moisture and direct light to maintain potency. Keep out of reach of children and pets to prevent accidental ingestion. Consult a healthcare provider before use if you have persistent coughs lasting more than a week or accompanied by fever. Avoid sharing this medication with others, even if symptoms seem similar.

What does Butamirate Citrate interact with?

Tussin may interact with other central nervous system depressants, including alcohol or sedatives, potentially enhancing drowsiness.
