Description
Dextromethorphan Hydrobromide is the hydrobromide salt form of dextromethorphan, a synthetic,
methylated dextrorotary analogue of levorphanol, a substance related to codeine and a non-opioid derivate of morphine. Dextromethorphan exhibits antitussive activity and is devoid of analgesic or
addictive property. This agent crosses the blood-brain-barrier and activates sigma opioid receptors
on the cough center in the central nervous system, thereby suppressing the cough reflex.
