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

Imagine you have a scratchy feeling in your throat, and it makes you want to cough. Cough remedies, like cough syrups, help to make your throat feel better. They are like sweet, thick, magical juice that helps to soothe your scratchy throat.
Cough syrups are liquid, which makes it easy for them to coat your throat as you swallow. This is like putting a band-aid on a boo-boo, but for your throat! Pills are not as good at doing this because they don’t spread around like the liquid syrup does.
So, cough syrups are used because they can reach and soothe your throat better than pills can.
