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).

Such medications are equally popular in the fight against coughing, rather than any others.Moreover, drops from cough can be taken as adults, and children.Their variety is small in comparison with other drugs, but there is also something to choose from.

Drops for children from cough

If we take into account pediatrics, then, of course, the drops are one of the most convenient forms of the drug.

The fact is that they can easily be added to food or dissolved in any drink. Children's droplets against cough can be divided into three groups. This division is carried out according to the very principle of the effect of this drug, as well as efficiency.

Now, in more detail about each group:

1. Droplets that can reduce the irritability of the so-called reflex center, which is responsible for coughing. The result is immediate, but you need to be extremely cautious, giving such drugs to children aged no more than 2 years. The fact is that they are able to depress the breath.
2. The second group includes more harmless drugs that help reduce the sensitivity of the surfaces of the larynx and, of course, the bronchi. Such drugs are also less active than the first group. Yes, and they act for a short time.
3. The third group includes expectorant droplets. They are able to excite the smooth muscles of the stomach, so that the cough will intensify. In the process, the bronchi will shrink sufficiently, after which sputum production will occur.

Drops that provoke expectoration, most often produce on the basis of various herbs. To the group of such drops, it is possible to relate easily the ammonium anise. But it is worth remembering that without the appointment of a doctor and with non-compliance with the technique of using this drug, even this kind of means to give the child can not.

Aniseed drops in the fight against cough

Aniseed drops from cough - this is quite common today. They are good for both dry and wet cough. They can be purchased at any pharmacy. Most often they are used to treat a child.

Since pharmacies are overcrowded with various expensive drugs, at the moment anise drops are harder to get. But if you are lucky enough to find this drug, then remember that it is much more effective than the modern expensive syrups and pills.

The composition of the anise droplets is simple. They include anise oil, ammonia, and also ethyl alcohol. They are presented in the form of a colorless or yellowish liquid, which has a light aroma of ammonia. Capsules of anise do not scare off their children with their smell and at the same time they are well tolerated by them.

The effect of this drug and its use

Narrow-anise drops are a very good tool for fighting cough. They have an expectorant and anti-inflammatory effect. They are very effective for various colds in children. Have an excellent effect on the baby's throat and his airways.

Due to the anethole, sputum is produced. Moreover, such a medicine is an antiseptic.

The complex composition is able to help in the treatment of all colds in children. Moreover, such drops are able to improve the baby's appetite and digestion, which is exactly what children do not have at the time of a cold.

Most often, children who suffer from a cold are prone to loss of appetite. If the child's appetite rises, then the tone of the whole organism rises, which allows you to eliminate the infection much faster.

Drops are simple in their application. They need to be taken 3 times a day. Anise drops for adults and children can not be taken in pure form. They must be diluted in boiled water.

How does an ammonium anise drop occur? Such a drug can be taken not only as a cough remedy. Drops have the following useful properties:

STOPTUSSIN drops (from a cough) ???

Answers:

Olga Stolyarova

Stoptussin drops and tablets contains two components: one (butamate) has antitussive effect, rendering an anesthetic effect on bronchial mucosa, another component (guaifenesin), promotes liquefaction phlegm. Stoptopsin syrup already has a different composition, it is on herbs and has an expectorant property.
Combining with other drugs makes no sense. Itself I am constantly saved only by them (the truth in tablets) from the paroxysmal cough, t. To. Libeksin in tablets absolutely does not help or assist.
Children, too, when the cough begins and cough often, I give drops, when by themselves, when it helps with herbal syrups, and it does not get worse either.

Mailbox owner

Positive reviews. It is pleasant to taste, dosage and combination with other drugs, check with the professionals. And from coughing helps.

. .

It's just grass, and not strong. It is recommended as a homeopathic remedy and a long reception. If you suffer from a dry, hacking cough, then you can damp down the cough center with libexin, it's faster and more efficient. But it is not recommended to take the medication simultaneously with drugs that dilute and excrete sputum.

Tina Kelven

Do not take this medication yourself, without the appointment of a doctor. He basically depresses the cough, so it is prescribed for an irritating, hysterical cough (for example, with tracheitis or whooping cough). But if you take it with other types of cough, for example, if you need to withdraw phlegm, then you can do a lot of harm yourself, driving the inflammatory process inwards. After this, it will take much longer to heal. Moreover, it is not necessary to combine the use of drugs that suppress cough, with others, especially those aimed at stimulating the excretion of sputum (an mutually exclusive effect will result).

Mira Sagittarius

To me from coughing Проспан in drops it is pleasant more. And the effect from it comes faster. dry cough for 3 days passes. Sputum begins to stand out. clearing throat easier. At me in a first-aid set stand always just in case.

Drops Stops

A perfect antitussive drug for adults and children, drops Stops, sold in any pharmacy. But many people prefer to buy this drug in the form of tablets and sweet syrup. The reason for this - a complicated at first glance scheme for the reception of drops. In fact, this form of medicine is not only recognized as the most effective, but also differs in its ease of use.

Why do the drops from coughing Stoptussin act faster?

Stopoutsin refers to preparations for cough of complex action. The following components are part of the medicine:

• Guaifenesin (a substance that liquefies phlegm and improves their waste);
• butamirate dihydrocitate (analgesic with antitussive effect);
• extract of licorice root (promotes purification of the lungs and bronchi).

As auxiliary components, ethanol, water and flavor are used.
