The Dextromethorphan (DM for short) is a cough suppressant. It acts by blocking the cough reflex center in the brain. It will offer temporary relief (a few hours) to that nagging cough caused by a "tickle" in the throat.
DELSYM is different than other cough suppressants because it is an extended release suspension designed to last for 12 hours.
