It is classified as an antitussive, which means it is used to relieve coughing. Dextromethorphan works by acting on the brain’s cough center to reduce the urge to cough. It is typically found in cough syrups, capsules, and lozenges and is used to provide temporary relief from non-productive or dry coughs.
