Has it a mixture of remedies? (5)
I believe the answer is:
cough
'mixture of remedies?' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both acts as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe there's a link between them I don't understand?
I cannot understand how the remainder of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for cough that I've seen before include "Bronchial infection" , "Confess to a crime" , "Sudden expulsion of air from the lungs" , "Symptom of chest infection" , "Noise from the throat" .)
