How Vicks Hoestdrank Noscapinehydrochloride works
Vicks Hoestdrank Noscapinehydrochloride'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.
