Pharmacodynamics

Oxilofrine is a sympathomimetic which increases adrenergic activity 1.

Mechanism of action

Oxilofrine is likely helps to treat cough by stimulating α1 adrenergic receptors resulting in vasoconstriction. This would serve to reduce secretion of mucus into the airway and lessen the stimulus to cough.
