guaifenesin and Sensitivity and Specificity

guaifenesin has been researched along with Sensitivity and Specificity in 69 studies

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

Sensitivity and Specificity: Binary classification measures to assess test results. Sensitivity or recall rate is the proportion of true positives. Specificity is the probability of correctly determining the absence of a condition. (From Last, Dictionary of Epidemiology, 2d ed)
