Uses

Tussanil-N is a non-sedating isoquinoline alkaloid used primarily for its antitussive properties.

Investigated for use/treatment in lymphoma (non-hodgkin's), leukemia (lymphoid), cancer/tumors (unspecified), and multiple myeloma.

Tussanil-N is also used to associated treatment for these conditions: Common Cold, Cough, Respiratory Diseases, Airway secretion clearance therapy

How Tussanil-N works

Tussanil-N's antitussive effects appear to be primarily mediated by its sigma receptor agonist activity. Evidence for this mechanism is suggested by experimental evidence in rats. Pretreatment with rimcazole, a sigma specific antagonist, causes a dose-dependent reduction in antitussive activity of noscapine.
