愈创甘油醚作为祛痰剂的使用历史已经相当长，并已被收载入英国、美国等国药典。美国愈创甘油醚总市场约为11亿美元，在我国，愈创甘油醚被列入第一批非处方药目录。
阿当斯公司致力于变态反应用药和呼吸系统用药的研发和销售，2002年7月15日该公司宣布，愈创甘油醚长效制剂Mucinex作为非处方药上市的申请已获得FDA 批准。Mucinex规格为600mg／片，每12小时服两片。 Mucinex运用双层药物传输系统技术：第一层可将药物迅速释放到血液以缓解突发症状；第二层为缓释系统，可维持12小时药效。
Adams公司是一家呼吸系统药物的供应商，该公司宣布FDA已经批准了两种浓度的Mucinex®DM（缓释呱芬那辛guaifenesin600mg/氢溴酸右美沙芬dextromethorphanHBr30mg和呱芬那辛guaifenesin1200mg/氢溴酸右美沙芬dextromethorphanHBr60mg）。Mucinex®DM是一种化痰剂和止咳剂，从2004年9月起患者将无需处方就可以在全国所有的药品零售柜台买到。
Mucinex®DM是FDA批准的第一个呱芬那辛guaifenesin和氢溴酸右美沙芬dextromethorphanHBr的复方缓释药物。这类产品之前只能作为处方药获得。在2002年6月，Adams公司的药物Mucinex®（缓释呱芬那辛guaifenesin600/1200mg）已经获得了FDA的批准

Mucinex Oral Uses
This medication is used for the temporary relief of coughs caused by the common cold, bronchitis, and other breathing illnesses. This product is usually not used for ongoing cough from smoking or long-term breathing problems (such as chronic bronchitis, emphysema) unless directed by your doctor. Guaifenesin is an expectorant. It works by thinning and loosening mucus in the airways, clearing congestion, and making breathing easier.

If you are self-treating with this medication, it is important to read the package instructions carefully before you start using this product to be sure it is right for you. (See also Precautions section.)

Cough-and-cold products have not been shown to be safe or effective in children younger than 6 years. This product (sustained-release) is not recommended for use in children younger than 12 years unless specifically directed by the doctor. Ask your doctor or pharmacist for more details about using your product safely.

These products do not cure or shorten the length of the common cold. To decrease the risk for side effects, carefully follow all dosage directions. Do not give other cough-and-cold medication that might contain the same or similar ingredients (see also Drug Interactions section). Ask the doctor or pharmacist about other ways to relieve cough and cold symptoms (such as drinking enough fluids, using a humidifier or saline nose drops/spray).

How to use Mucinex Oral
Take this medication by mouth with or without food, as directed by your doctor, usually every 12 hours with a full glass of water. If you are self-treating, follow all directions on the product package. If you are uncertain about any of the information, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
