Ibu anak brand, sea coconut brand or other ones people may not know?


The one the clinic gave only made me drowsy but barely worked on controlling the symptoms. 😂 Then this aunty said I should look into woods and the peppermint feels so soothing almost immediate relief. 😍

It depends on what kind of cough you have. The active ingredient for a dry cough vs a 'wet' cough is different

So if you find your cough is not getting better, perhaps identify what kind of cough you are having and then request the right kind of cough med. Some pharmacist really just anyhow prescribe only

This is what my family consume for cough
I've never googled about Hosolvon and what type of cough it cures
But if you go to KK or buy tablets for thinning the pleghm, pharmacist would give you Bromhexine, which is also one of active ingredients here

This was my go to until i caught covid and it couldnt relieve my dry cough. After recovered from covid my dry cough persist for over 2 mths. I finished two bottles of linctus and it still didnt help. Went to another pharmacy and was prescribed another similar dry cough med (similar actives) called mendicof and that did the trick 🤷🏻‍♀️

yes, post covid, the cough persists to the point i couldn't sleep.
linctus is already pretty good but damn this mendicof is actually even better. always good to know other effective meds as option.
