Expectants - expectorants
Medicines that make it easier to expectorate phlegm. There are those that dilute the phlegm itself to make it easier to expectorate, and those that stimulate coughing to make it easier to expectorate phlegm. Examples of medicines that make it easier to expectorate phlegm include soluble expectorants made with alkaline agents such as ammonia and baking soda, mild expectorants that use the viscosity of plants such as licorice and rhizomes to ease airway irritation, and stimulant expectorants such as saponins (senega root, ammonium carbonate).
