General Product Description
Robitussin Chesty Cough Forte provides symptomatic relief from congested chests and coughs due to the common cold. Robitussin liquid coats and soothes the throat. The dual formula combines the expectorant Guaifenesin which increases the flow of natural secretions along the lower respiratory tract and Bromhexine Hydrochloride to liquefy and breakdown the secretions.
This combination helps break up a cough and helps loosen congestion, so you can cough it up and get it off your chest.
