CLEAR CONGESTION WITH ACC®1-3
Is your family struggling with chesty coughs and snotty sinuses? ACC® can help!1-5
The Snotties and Phlegmings can strike at any time, from cold and flu season to year-round allergies.6-9
Colds, flu and allergies make your body produce extra mucus and phlegm, leading to wet coughs and snotty noses.6

The mucus and phlegm that your body produces when you’re sick is thicker and stickier than normal mucus and phlegm.6 Large amounts of this yucky stuff can clog up your airways.6
What is the difference between mucus and phlegm?6,10
Mucus and phlegm are both slippery liquid substances produced by your body. When they’re produced
in normal amounts, they help to keep your tissues hydrated and prevent infection.
• Mucus is a stringy liquid found in the linings of your nose and sinuses.
• Phlegm is a type of mucus produced by your lungs.
What does ACC® do to mucus and phlegm?
ACC® is a type of medication known as a mucolytic.1-3 This means it breaks down mucus and phlegm and makes them easier to clear out of your chest and sinuses.1-5

FED UP WITH THE PHLEGMINGS?
A wet cough is a type of cough caused by too much phlegm or mucus in your airways.14,15 It’s also known as a productive cough, because it causes you to cough up (produce) phlegm.14,15
ACC® can help to treat a wet, phlegmy cough by breaking down the phlegm and making it easier to cough up.1-5

SICK OF THE SNOTTIES?
When the lining of your sinuses becomes inflamed (swollen) or irritated, it often starts to produce extra mucus, giving you a snotty or stuffy nose.16
ACC® makes the mucus thinner so it’s easier to clear out your sinuses.1-5
