How Does it Work
Hydrocodone Bitartrate 1 mg/mL and Homatropine Methylbromide 0.3 mg/mL Oral Syrup is a combination product used to treat general cough and cold symptoms. Hydrocodone bitartrate is a potent, centrally-acting narcotic analgesic and antitussive that works by activating opioid receptors in the brain to block pain signals and reduce coughing. Homatropine methylbromide is an anticholinergic agent that works by blocking the effects of acetylcholine at muscarinic (parasympathetic) nerve endings, thus decreasing smooth muscle contraction. Together, the two components work together to reduce the intensity of a cough and relieve associated congestion symptoms. As with all narcotic analgesics, hydrocodone bitartrate can be addictive and can cause severe respiratory depression if taken in high doses or in combination with other drugs. It should only be used under the supervision of a physician.
