Why not a pill or an inhaler? (Couldn’t decide between chemistry and biology for flair)

You can find them in pill and tablet form just as many as syrups. Dextromethorphan is ingredient that stops the cough. It turns off the part of the brain that makes you cough. They often come in syrup because it’s cheaper and easier for your body to absorb than tablets. Tablets takes time as the body needs to disolve it before absorbing.
