DelsymThis page contains recent news articles, when available, and an overview of Delsym but does not offer medical advice. You should contact your physician with regard to any health issues or concerns.Overview: Delsym (when available) Suppresses the cough reflex by a direct action on the cough center in the medulla of the brain. For treatment and relief of dry cough Mechanism Of Action: Dextromethorphan is an opioid-like drug that binds to and acts as antagonist to the NMDA glutamatergic receptor, it is an agonist to the opioid sigma 1 and sigma 2 receptors, it is also an alpha3/beta4 nicotinic receptor antagonist and targets the serotonin reuptake pump. Dextromethorphan is rapidly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract, where it enters the bloodstream and crosses the blood-brain barrier. The first-pass through the hepatic portal vein results in some of the drug being metabolized into an active metabolite of dextromethorphan, dextrorphan, the 3-hydroxy derivative of dextromethorphan.
