guaifenesin and Barrett Esophagus

guaifenesin has been researched along with Barrett Esophagus in 2 studies

Guaifenesin: An expectorant that also has some muscle relaxing action. It is used in many cough preparations.

Barrett Esophagus: A condition with damage to the lining of the lower ESOPHAGUS resulting from chronic acid reflux (ESOPHAGITIS, REFLUX). Through the process of metaplasia, the squamous cells are replaced by a columnar epithelium with cells resembling those of the INTESTINE or the salmon-pink mucosa of the STOMACH. Barrett's columnar epithelium is a marker for severe reflux and precursor to ADENOCARCINOMA of the esophagus.
