Selecting the Best Cough Medicine

admin — Mon, 23 Jan 2012 19:09:18 +0000

Coughing? If you walk into your local pharmacy, you’ll be presented with a dizzying array of cough medicines, all promising relief. Which one should you choose? It’s easy to rule out children’s cough medicine if you’re an adult and select between daytime and night time formulas, but you’re still left with lots of options.

You don’t want to waste your time and money on products not designed to help your particular cough. Your choice of cough medicine will depend on the type of cough you’re trying to treat. There are mucus coughs, dry coughs, chesty coughs and tickly coughs. The medicines should be clearly marked as to what type of cough they treat. If you were to ask the pharmacist for advice, they are likely to ask you what type of cough you have.

There are no real natural cures for a cough. For people that eschew cures that are not completely natural, honey may be an cough treatment for people if you cannot get to a pharmacy right away but its effect is minimal. Note that children under one year of age shouldn’t ever be given honey for a cough. Unfortunately, there really is no substitute for a commercial cough medicine if you want to stop coughing. They work quickly and are completely safe when used as directed.
