All expectorants for cough with bronchitis

When ORVI, bronchitis with a damp cough with poorly separated sputum, the use of medicines is recommended, which either dilute sputum - mucolytic drugs, or facilitate its separation - expectorants from cough. These include both herbal remedies and synthetic preparations.

Many of us prefer to restrict the intake of medications not obtained from natural substances, however, it should always be remembered that any a medicinal plant, no matter what positive properties it possessed, as well as synthetic agents have side effects, and has a number contraindications.

Since the composition of all medicinal plants is very complex and saturated, in addition to useful and medicinal herbs, a lot of other, sometimes toxic, harmful substances are included in the herbs and preparations. Moreover, in our days, the majority of the population suffers from various types of allergies, and any drug, even the most expensive, effective and safe, can cause an inadequate body reaction.

Classification of funds that facilitate cough and promote rapid recovery

All means for cough relief are subdivided into antitussives, expectorants and mucolytic agents.

• Antitussives, as well as combination preparations - are indicated for dry, unproductive cough, disturbing sleep and appetite (see. article antitussives with dry cough).
• Expectorants - are indicated with a productive cough, when the sputum is not thick, not viscous.
• Mucolytic agents - are shown with a productive cough, but with a thick, hard to separate, viscous sputum.

Any cough medicine must be prescribed only by your doctor. Antitussive remedies can not be used to treat concomitantly with mucolytic drugs, but there are combination drugs that have a weak antitussive and expectorant effect.

Expectorants - means that stimulate expectoration are also divided into:

• Reflex action - these drugs have an irritating effect on the gastric mucosa, and this in its turn excites the vomiting center, but vomiting does not occur, but the production of mucus in respiratory ways. The peristalsis of the smooth musculature of the bronchi and the activity of the epithelium, which removes phlegm from small to large bronchioles and into the trachea, is also intensified. The result of this irritation is the facilitation of expectoration of mucus and the removal of sputum from the bronchi. In general, these are herbal preparations - thermopsis, Ledum, mother and stepmother, althea, plantain, thyme, etc.

• Direct resorptive action - after digestion of these cough suppressants in the digestive tract, they cause irritation of the bronchial mucosa, thereby increasing the secretion of liquid sputum.

Mucolytic agents are preparations that dilute sputum:

• Mukoliticheskie means, affecting the elasticity and viscosity of bronchial mucus (ATSTS, etc.)
• Mucolytic agents that accelerate the excretion of sputum (bromhexine, ambroxol)
• Mucolytic drugs that reduce the formation of mucus (Libexin Muko, M-cholinoblockers, glucocorticoids).

Medicine for dry cough: reviews

A dry cough is a problem that at least once bothered each of us. It occurs both in adults and in children. If you or your baby suffer from this phenomenon, the first thing you need to do is to consult a doctor, as it will help to find out the cause of the cough and eliminate it with the right drugs. These drugs are very many and pick the most suitable is quite difficult. In this article we will find out what kind of mixture of dry cough is most effective in treating children and adults.

What is a cough?

Cough is a reflex response of the body to the presence of an irritant in the respiratory tract. It can be a foreign body, sputum, etc. Nevertheless, as soon as it becomes uncomfortable and painful, its elimination becomes simply necessary. Pharmaceutical campaigns provide a huge list of drugs aimed at reducing the severity of cough. You can not find anything on chemist's shelves - the medicine (from dry cough and from wet) can be presented in the form of tablets, drops, inhalers, syrups, suspensions, infusions, etc.

Choose antitussive drug correctly

The abundance of drugs is explained simply - it all depends on the nature of the cough. If it is wet, then drugs are used for better separation of sputum, and if dry - drugs to suppress cough receptors. In this case, most often the cough turns dry into wet.

It is also important not to forget about the cause of the problem - an allergic cough is treated with antihistamines, to reduce Cough smokers are recommended to treat bronchi and quit smoking, but the tuberculosis does not need an integrated treatment. However, the most frequent cough is caused by infectious diseases of the upper respiratory tract. It is their treatment that requires the use of lower-level drugs. In this case it is worth considering - the medicine for dry cough for children from 2 years old is not uncommon, many drugs are contraindicated for use by very young children. Therefore, before use, it is important to carefully read the instructions of the drug, and better - to see a doctor, because very small patients require special attention.

There are 3 types of drugs against cough:

Safe and unsafe

Dry cough occurs due to irritation of the mucous membrane of the respiratory tract. The reason can be any - allergic, infectious or non-infectious. To eliminate it, the use of drugs that affect the cough center in the brain is recommended.

Choosing the right children's medicine against cough: tips and tricks

Most mothers when a child coughs go into a state of panic and begin to convulsively think what would give this to his child, so that the cough as soon as possible is gone. In fact, not everything is so terrible, moreover, cough itself is not a disease and it is not worth trying to get rid of it quickly.Cough, in its essence, is nothing short of a protective reaction of the body to irritation of cough receptors, it is simply necessary for cleansing the respiratory tract from mucus and sputum, foreign bodies, blood and pus.That is why cough medicine for children should be selected especially carefully, because the correct choice depends on the effectiveness of its use and the duration of recovery.

It can be different

The composition of a child's medicine for coughing should include natural ingredients, for example extracts of herbs, plant roots, tree bark, etc. In addition, the composition of the mixture should include ingredients that improve its taste, because most of the useful and natural plant components have a very unpleasant taste. Most of the kids are wary of taking various medications, so the taste is really very important.The composition of the medicine will depend on what kind of cough the child has.There are two main types of cough:

• unproductive dry (barking),
• productive wet.

Dry cough appears when the mucous membranes of the respiratory tract are affected by mechanical, chemical or thermal irritants, as well as by irritation of the pleura.Most often it occurs in the early stages of inflammation of the mucous membrane, when irritation already exists, and there is simply nothing to cough up. Unproductive cough can be debilitating paroxysmal, not bringing, as a rule, no relief, and unpronounceable. The medicine for cough for children in this case should have an antitussive effect and extinguish the irritation of the receptors. The composition of such funds most often includes extract of eucalyptus, licorice root, wild cherry, licorice and white acacia.

Wet productive cough differs from dry intensive sputum discharge.It, like the dry one, is paroxysmal and not paroxysmal, and differs only in the viscosity of phlegm. Calm a wet cough can only be when the sputum is completely gone, so the children's cough syrup with instructions for use should facilitate the early completion of this process and contain expectorants substance. Among natural expectorants are drugs with psyllium, mother-and-stepmother, alteum, elecampane and anise.

It is important to know

Currently, pharmacies can be purchased not only ready-made syrups, but also dry cough syrups for children that are bred with boiled water just before they are consumed. In order for the child's treatment to be truly effective, and most importantly safe, one must remember one truth: drugs intended for the treatment of one type of cough are harmful in the treatment of another.

Therefore, before rushing to the pharmacy and randomly buying the first syrup that has come, it is necessary to accurately diagnose the type of cough, and only a doctor can do it.

In every home where there are young children, there is always a cough medicine for children. Vinstruktsii, applied to the remedy, should be clearly defined, with what particular symptoms it should be taken. If you decide to use the already available funds before you go to the doctor, watch closely state of the child after taking the drug, so that in the event of the development of negative reactions in a timely manner cancel.

in a frying pan wiped with sunflower oil (if tefal is not required) on a slow fire dissolve the sugar - just sugar pour into a frying pan and wait until it melts.
the resulting mass (do not burn! ) pour on a plate or leave in a skillet - as you prefer.
The meaning of this whole procedure is to dilute this burnt sugar in the water and give it to the baby (concentration to taste).
Absolutely safe, tasty and good enough helps.
And you yourself will like it - no chupachupsov it is not necessary!

Get well!

It all depends on the cough (dry, wet). But, as I have shown, mukal'tin is not inferior to any potions. We have used it for a long time already and never let it down. So all these medicines are a common business.
Only mukaltin it is better to dissolve in a small amount of water.

For me, they are all the same. Have tried everything, and the daughter as coughed and coughs, already to vomiting (((But mine now 5 years. By myself I know that warming helps me best. There are inhalers. The most excellent thing))) And if from urgent procedures, wrap the neck with a woolen scarf or shawl, warm socks, give the seagull with raspberry or marigold and under the blanket. Warming cream I think is not worth it.

About sugared sugar, really. Just dissolve it in a spoon, cool it and give it to the baby, so it's more convenient. And also: boil the milk, let it cool down a bit, then put 4-5 pieces. dried figs, you insist and drink 2-3 times a day. Figs are very useful, and about potions - very much all individually. Do not be ill.

Erespal is good for us.

when I was a little girl, I drank aniseed drops, althaea syrup, licorice, but they were poktsupnye, not prescription drugs.

Since Soviet times, I remember either "Pertussin or" Alteika. " More then nothing was. These medicines are still present, but in pharmacies they stand somewhere on the back shelves, and in front are beautiful, bright, glossy labels of imported and expensive medicines.
