Thiocodin Tablets (15 mg + 300 mg, 16 Pieces)
Thiocodin is a combination medication used to relieve dry, irritating coughs. Each tablet contains 15 mg of codeine phosphate and 300 mg of guaifenesin. Codeine acts as a cough suppressant by reducing the activity of the cough center in the brain, while guaifenesin helps thin and loosen mucus, making it easier to expel.
