Chest elixir - expectorant.
Pharmacodynamics
The expectorant effect of the chest elixir is due to the action of its components:
- Licorice extract thick has anti-inflammatory and expectorant properties, which are associated with its glycyrrhizin content, stimulating the activity of ciliated epithelium in the trachea and bronchi, as well as enhancing the secretory function of the mucous membranes of the upper respiratory tract;
- Anise oil has expectorant action, due to the content of anethole in the oil, which contributes to the reflex excitation of breathing, increased activity of ciliated epithelium of the respiratory tract, and enhancement of secretion by the mucous membrane of the larynx, trachea, and bronchi;
- Ammonia has an irritating effect, which leads to irritation of sensory nerve endings in the upper respiratory tract and reflex stimulation of the respiratory center.
Indications
As an expectorant in infectious-inflammatory diseases of the respiratory tract accompanied by cough with difficult-to-expectorate sputum (including tracheitis, tracheobronchitis, bronchitis).
Contraindications
- Increased sensitivity to the components of the preparation;
- Bronchial asthma;
- Gastritis;
- Gastric and duodenal ulcer in the exacerbation period;
- Pregnancy;
- Lactation period.
With caution: liver diseases, alcoholism, traumatic brain injury, brain diseases, childhood.
Side effects
Allergic reactions are possible, diarrhea may occur in isolated cases.
Interactions
If necessary, it can be used in combination with antibiotics and other drugs. Do not use simultaneously with cough suppressants, as this makes it difficult to expectorate thinned sputum.
How to take, course of treatment and dosage
Take orally, 3–4 times a day. For adults - 20–40 drops, for children, the number of drops is prescribed according to the child's age. Before use, dilute in a small amount of water.
Treatment course - 7–10 days. Prolonging the duration of treatment and conducting repeated courses of treatment is possible upon the recommendation of a doctor.
Special instructions
The preparation contains 90% ethyl alcohol. The content of absolute ethyl alcohol in one drop of the preparation is 0.0075 g, in a maximum single dose for adults - up to 0.3 g, in a maximum daily dose - up to 1.2 g.

What Chest Elixir is
Chest Elixir oral solution 25 ml by Tverskaya Pharmaceutical Factory is a traditional expectorant used when a cough is accompanied by thick mucus that is hard to bring up. People usually choose this kind of oral solution during a cold season or after an upper respiratory infection, when the chest feels heavy and coughing does not easily clear the airways. Its role is not to block the cough reflex, but to make coughing more productive by helping secretions move more freely.
Key components and how they act
The effect comes from a combination of well-known components that act in slightly different ways:
- Thick licorice extract contains glycyrrhizin, a plant compound associated with soothing and expectorant action. In simple terms, it helps the lining of the respiratory tract produce more fluid secretion and encourages the tiny cilia that move mucus upward.
- Anise oil provides anethole, which is traditionally used in cough mixtures because it promotes bronchial secretion and can make phlegm less stagnant.
- Ammonia works differently: it mildly irritates sensory receptors in the upper airways, which reflexively increases respiratory activity and helps the body expel mucus.
What makes this formula practical is the combination of herbal extract and aromatic oil in a liquid form. Drops are easy to dilute in water, and liquid preparations are often chosen by people who prefer not to swallow tablets or want a format that can be adjusted in small measured amounts. Licorice and anise also have a long history of use in traditional cough remedies across Europe and Eurasia, especially in mixtures intended for wet, chesty cough rather than dry throat irritation.
When people choose it
This product is generally considered when the main issue is difficult expectoration: for example, when coughing brings little relief, mucus feels sticky, or the throat and bronchi seem to need help clearing secretions. It fits best into a short-term regimen aimed at easier mucus drainage, along with enough fluids and rest. Because it is an expectorant, it is usually not paired with cough suppressants that reduce the urge to cough, since that combination may make mucus harder to clear.
Important notes
A soft caution: Chest Elixir is not suitable for everyone. Extra attention is needed in:
- pregnancy and breastfeeding;
- asthma;
- stomach irritation or ulcer history;
- liver problems;
- alcohol-related restrictions;
- use in children.
If the cough is prolonged, unusually severe, accompanied by fever, wheezing or shortness of breath, or if you use other medicines, it is wise to speak with a pharmacist or doctor before use.
