Cough Suppressant
From Gomerpedia
A cough suppressant or antitussive helps control coughing by suppressing the urge to cough.[1]
Cough suppressants fall into two classes:
(1) Medications, such as dextromethorphan or benzonatate.
(2) Intubation, which is by far the preferred method by medical personnel.[2][3][4][5]
