Can a 6-year-old use Thiocodin syrup?

Child 6 years, persistent cough at night. The pharmacist recommended using a single dose of thiocodin syrup (5mililitrov) overnight. Is it safe?

Giving Thiocodin syrup to a 6-year-old is not recommended. This syrup can be safely used only in children over 12 years of age. In order to relieve dry and persistent cough at night, a 6-year-old child can use syrups with levodropropizine, e.g. Levopront or Unituss Junior or with butamirate, e.g. Sinecod, Attusan. On our portal you can compare the prices of these preparations in online pharmacies and place an order with home delivery or collection at the pharmacy: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/92559/levopront-syrop/apteki https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/112021/unituss-junior-syrop/apteki https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/71319/sinecod-syrop/apteki I encourage you to read the article: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/kategorie/kaszel-u-dziecka

Thiocodin syrup can be safely used only from the age of 12. According to the best sources of knowledge, a better choice for persistent, dry cough in children are drugs containing levodropropizine, e.g. Levopront, Unituss Junior or butamirate - however, for several months the access of drugs with butamirate has been very difficult. I mean Syrups Sinecod, Supremin and Atussan. Below I attach links to the availability in pharmacies of drugs with levodropropizine: Levopront: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/92559/levopront-syrop/apteki Unituss Junior: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/112021/unituss-junior-syrop/apteki And here are links to the availability in pharmacies of syrups with butamirate: Sinecod: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/71319/sinecod-syrop/apteki Atussan: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/8016/atussan-syrop/apteki Supremin: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/75768/supremin-syrop/apteki I also encourage you to read the article on the treatment of cough in children: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/kategorie/kaszel-u-dziecka
