What Benzonatate is
A cough medicine that numbs the stretch sensors in the lungs that set off coughing.
What it’s for
Easing cough from colds, bronchitis and other chest illnesses.
How it’s taken
By mouth, swallowed whole, up to three times a day as needed.
Good to know
Never chew, crush or suck the capsule: it can numb the mouth and throat and cause choking. It can be deadly for children who swallow even one or two, so store it out of reach; if a child swallows one, call 911. A cough lasting more than 3 weeks, or with blood or shortness of breath, should be checked.
