Pharmacology:
Eucalyptol is a natural organic compound, a colorless liquid that controls airway mucus hypersecretion and asthma via anti-inflammatory cytokine inhibition. Menthol provides a cooling sensation and acts as a local anesthetic. Methyl Salicylate penetrates pain regions, inhibits prostaglandin synthesis, and relieves pain effectively. Thymol, found in dental varnish to prevent tooth decay, is also used in perfumes, soaps, cosmetics, and toothpastes. Fluoride enhances tooth strength by forming fluorapatite in tooth enamel.
