MUCINEX D is an oral extended-release tablet combining guaifenesin (expectorant) and pseudoephedrine HCl (decongestant) approved in 2004 for over-the-counter use. It is indicated for temporary relief of chest congestion and nasal congestion due to colds, bronchitis, or flu. The drug works by thinning mucus secretions and reducing nasal swelling to improve airway clearance.
