General Description

2-(butylamino)-2-methylpropan-1-ol, also known as N-butylmethylpropanolamine, is a chemical compound with the formula C8H189N03. It belongs to the class of alkanolamines and is commonly used as an active ingredient in over-the-counter cough and cold medications. 2-(butylamino)-2-methylpropan-1-ol acts as a cough suppressant by affecting the cough center in the medulla, leading to a decrease in the frequency and intensity of coughing. Additionally, it also has vasoconstrictive and decongestant properties, making it effective in relieving nasal congestion. Although relatively safe when used as directed, caution should be taken to avoid potential side effects such as dizziness, drowsiness, and nervousness, as well as interactions with other medications.
