Erdomed in the form of syrup is recommended as a secretolytic treatment in acute and chronic diseases of the upper respiratory tract. Secretolytic drugs increase the secretion of thin mucus, which thins the thick secretion in the airways. Thus, it is logical that the child coughs more. The product should not be used before bedtime.
Make sure your child drinks plenty of water, especially water and warm liquids (e.g. fruit teas).
As the product has been prescribed by a doctor, please use it for as long as it is prescribed. If you experience any worrying symptoms, please consult your pediatrician. It would be a mistake to introduce Sinecod now. Because butamirate citrate (the active substance in Sinecod) suppresses the cough reflex, concomitant administration of expectorants should be avoided as this may lead to mucus accumulation in the airways, which increases the risk of bronchospasm and respiratory infection.
To soothe throat irritation caused by frequent coughing, you can use preparations based on Iceland moss or marshmallow, e.g. Iceland Syrup or Marshmallow Syrup.
