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

Which one works for dry cough?

Look for cough med that contains dextromethorphan as active ingredient

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 seems to be a combo for both the wet chesty cough and dry cough.

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 🤷🏻‍♀️

Wow. You had dry cough for over 2 months? By the way, this mendicof quite effective.

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.
