| How it Works | - Guaifenesin works by thinning and loosening mucus in the airways, making it easier to cough up. Phenylephrine is a decongestant that works by narrowing blood vessels in the nasal passages, reducing swelling and congestion. Chlorpheniramine is an antihistamine that works by blocking the effects of histamine, a chemical that causes allergy symptoms such as runny nose, sneezing, and watery eyes.
