Cough lozenges – This is the first aid for a sore throat. Such tablets and lozenges can quickly eliminate unpleasant symptoms and alleviate a person’s condition. Of course, they are not able to cope with the underlying disease, for example, with bronchitis or laryngitis, but such drugs are quite capable of making you feel better.
How to choose the “right” cough drops?
To get the maximum effect from the therapy carried out by lozenges, you need to understand the mechanism of their action, as well as the mechanism of the cough itself.
Cough can occur with inflammation of the throat and tonsils due to microbes and toxins entering the respiratory tract. In this case, a person suffers from a dry cough, without sputum discharge. In this case, you will feel a feeling of soreness in the throat. Anti-inflammatory lozenges help to cope with such a cough.
Moist cough with sputum develops with inflammation of the bronchi, trachea and lungs. The glands of the lower respiratory tract produce mucus in order to remove the pathogenic flora from the body. In this case, the throat of a person most often does not hurt and does not tickle. Such a cough is called “chest”, it is most often not possible to suppress it with an effort of will. In this case, you need to take drugs that facilitate the discharge of sputum and contribute to the transfer of a dry cough into a wet one.
The cough may be allergic in nature. Allergic people begin to suffer from such a cough after inhaling plant pollen, perfume, house dust, household products. Sometimes an allergic cough develops in people against the background of inflammatory processes in the organs of the respiratory system. At the same time, it will be paroxysmal, with the separation of a small amount of transparent sputum. A person has watery eyes, rhinitis may begin. In this case, you need to take antihistamines. Cough drops are a secondary aid. You can choose any lozenges, but taking into account that a person does not have an allergy to the components that make up their composition. Thanks to such lozenges, a person will begin to produce more saliva, which will help moisturize the mucous membranes and relieve coughing fits.
Sometimes a cough is a residual phenomenon after suffering bronchitis or pneumonia. It can be treated with lozenges, which are aimed at suppressing the cough reflex. Their reception allows to reduce the activity of the cough center in the brain. The composition of such drugs contains dextromethorphan or pholcodine.
When the cough is wet and accompanied by phlegm, this will indicate inflammation of the lower respiratory tract. It will not be possible to cope with such a cough with the help of lozenges; it will be necessary to connect drugs with an expectorant and mucolytic effect.
