How does Drosetux work?
Drosetux as an antitussive drug is primarily intended to relieve bouts of dry, irritating cough, which sometimes leads to a feeling of suffocation or pain. It is a homeopathic antitussive drug, so it is safe to use in most adults and children. Drosetux reduces the frequency and number of attacks of dry cough, and the ingredients contained in the syrup support the body’s natural immune responses.
Drosetux syrup reduces the symptoms of inflammation and the swelling of the mucous membranes occurring in the course of the disease, and also accelerates the evolution of dry cough, at the same time leading to a faster relief of coughing attacks. It can also be administered at bedtime. Drosetux does not contain alcohol or artificial dyes, as well as fragrances, which quite often cause allergies, so it is safer than other drugs of this type.
