Abstract
Mucus production of the respiratory tract is our first defense against microbes and allergens. However, overproduction of the sputum and difficulty with airway clearance could lead to many respiratory tract diseases. Mucoactive agents are medications that either change the properties of the sputum or decrease its production. This article aims to provide an overview of common mucoactive agent.
