The drug is registered for use in adults, so I recommend choosing another expectorant preparation. Below are examples of over-the-counter drugs along with availability in pharmacies. - ACC 200 mg - https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/1498/acc-tabletki-musujace/apteki - Phlegamine tablets - https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/30260/flegamina-classic-tabletki/apteki However, if you have already given the medicine to your child, there is no reason to worry, because it contains a substance with a good safety profile, which in lower doses is registered in children in the form of syrups. I encourage you to read the leaflet of Deflegmin capsules: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/92025/deflegmin-kapsulki/ulotka and the article on the treatment of wet cough: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/kategorie/kaszel-mokry
