Dr. Li Jingli
Keteling is a commonly used medication for treating cough, and its main functions and effects include: 1. Antitussive: Keteling can effectively reduce the frequency and intensity of coughing, soothe throat pain, and relieve cough symptoms. This effect is particularly important for patients with dry cough or severe coughing. 2. Expectorant: By reducing airway inflammation, diluting sputum, and enhancing ciliary movement, Keteling promotes the expulsion of respiratory secretions, effectively clearing the airways and exerting an expectorant effect. 3. Anti-asthmatic: Keteling can calm the respiratory center, reduce airway spasms and inflammatory responses, thereby relieving cough and alleviating asthma symptoms. 4. Anti-inflammatory: Keteling also has effects of clearing heat, detoxifying, moistening the lungs, and resolving phlegm, which helps remove sputum and inflammatory substances from the respiratory tract, further alleviating cough symptoms.
