Description
Noscapine is a phthalide isoquinoline non-narcotic alkaloid derived from the opium poppy Papaver somniferum with mild analgesic, antitussive, and potential antineoplastic activities. Noscapine exerts its antitussive effects through the activation of sigma opioid receptors. The exceptional advantage of this unique formulation is its sugar-free preparation, making it suitable for diabetic consumers.
