Helicidine is a medication recommended for relieving dry coughs and irritating coughs.

A cough is not a disease but a symptom caused by irritation of the throat, trachea, bronchi, or, sometimes, the ears. A noticeable sign of many conditions, a cough is also the body’s defense mechanism to prevent congestion in the respiratory system. Whether it’s a dry, productive, acute, or chronic cough, find the medications to treat it in our online pharmacy.

For warnings, precautions, and contraindications, please consult the package insert. 

Description: Helicidine 10% Sugar-Free Syrup for Dry Cough, 250 ml 

Helicidine 10% syrup is used for the symptomatic treatment of bothersome non-productive coughs. 

Directions for Use: HELICIDINE 10% Sugar-Free Dry Cough Syrup 250 ml  

Symptomatic treatment should be short-term (a few days) and limited to times when the cough occurs.

Chest pastes may be used to soothe the throat between doses of the syrup.

  • Adults: 2 tablespoons 3 times a day.
  • Children: 2 ml/kg/day divided into 3 doses, i.e.:

Children weighing 25 to 50 kg (approximately 8 to 15 years old): 3 to 5 tablespoons per day.
Children weighing 15 to 25 kg (approximately 4 to 8 years old): 1 tablespoon 3 times a day.
Children weighing 12 to 15 kg (approximately 30 months to 4 years): 2 teaspoons 3 times a day.

Ingredients: Helicidine 10% Sugar-Free Dry Cough Syrup, 250 ml 

Per 100 ml
Helicidine 10 ml

Excipients: xanthan gum, sodium saccharin, liquid maltitol, raspberry flavoring, purified water. Preservatives: methyl parahydroxybenzoate, potassium sorbate.

Precautions for Use: Helicidine 10% Sugar-Free Dry Cough Syrup 250 ml 

History of hypersensitivity to any of the ingredients (particularly methyl and propyl parahydroxybenzoate sodium and other parahydroxybenzoate salts).
Infants (under 2 years of age): see Warnings and Precautions.

Warnings :

  • In cases of thick, purulent sputum, fever, or chronic bronchial and pulmonary disease, the treatment regimen should be reevaluated.
  • Productive coughs, which are a fundamental component of the bronchopulmonary defense mechanism, should be respected.
  • The combination of bronchial mucolytics with antitussives and/or secretion-drying agents (atropine-like) is inappropriate. Helicidin may cause bronchial congestion in infants. This is because their ability to clear bronchial mucus is limited due to the physiological characteristics of their respiratory tract. It should therefore not be used in infants (see Contraindications, Adverse Effects).
  • Treatment should be reevaluated if symptoms or the underlying condition persist or worsen.

Precautions for Use :

Hélicidine 10% Syrup contains hydrogenated glucose syrup (or liquid maltitol). Its use is not recommended in patients with fructose intolerance.

This medication contains methyl parahydroxybenzoate (E 218); it may cause allergic reactions (which may be delayed).

Packaging: Helicidine Syrup

250-ml bottle of syrup.

Advice

A dry cough, which is usually painful and exhausting, often tends to appear in the fall or winter, coinciding with the return of cold weather and respiratory illnesses.
A dry cough is irritating and non-productive because it does not result in the expulsion of mucus. It can be more exhausting than a productive cough because the absence of mucus prevents the relief associated with clearing the bronchial tubes.
Remedies for a dry cough:
Drink fluids throughout the day, especially hot herbal teas made with thyme or a mallow infusion to soothe the irritation caused by the cough.
Cypress essential oil is ideal for dry coughs such as “smoker’s tracheitis.”
