Usually occurring in the context of respiratory infections, coughing is one of the frequent reasons for consulting a doctor.
Defined as an expiration reflex allowing to clear the respiratory tract of secretions, coughing can also be accompanied by annoying, even aggravating symptoms.
Unlike the fatty cough which is accompanied by mucus or sputum loaded with infectious agents, the dry cough does not reject anything. However, it reflects inflammation in the lungs.
Propolis as a natural cough suppressant
Propolis is an excellent natural cough suppressant. Indeed, this dietary supplement which exists in the form of syrup, chewing gum or spray is both naturally anti-infectious and antioxidant. Very often, food supplements based on propolis also combine essential oils against cough (Eucalyptus, Scots pine and thyme in particular) and plants (plantain, white broth, marshmallow, agrimony, etc.).
Attention, the drug is not a product like the others. Read the package leaflet carefully before ordering. Keep medicines out of the reach of children. If symptoms persist, seek the advice of your doctor or pharmacist. Beware of incompatibilities on your current products.
