Many people do a variety of things to get relief from mucus, including drinking lots of water, drinking lots of hot water (not coffee or tea, just hot water, maybe with lemon), using mucinex, nebulizing saline solution and albuterol, huff cough method, percussion and postural drainage.

My lung doctor put me on two 400 mg tablets of guaifenesin (Mucinex) to thin and loosen the mucus in my lungs and throat. You may want to try a lower dose to start with if the mucus is not too thick.

Use Musinex 1200 twice a day, really works

My Pulmonologist has me nebulize twice a day. It loosens the mucus, as does the guaifenesin with lots of water. I take the time everyday to lay down and clear my lungs, about 20 minutes. Laying down brings the mucus up. I might have to do it a second time later.

I’ve not heard of that medication I do suffer with very thick mucus all the time I get Acelylcysteine it’s dissolved in water I’m prescribed it once a day usually at night between that and the flutter only a small amount of very thick yellow mucus but I’m near chocking getting it up very few day that it comes up easily it’s either green or orange yellow colour it takes the stuffing out of me
