About Prospan Sugar Free Cough Syrup

Prospan Sugar Free Cough Syrup belongs to the class of herbal medications used to treat sore throat, cough, and phlegm in adults and children over two years. Coughing is the body's mechanism of removing irritants from the airways and protecting itself against illness. There are two sorts of coughs: dry cough and chesty cough. A tickly cough or dry cough produces no harsh or thick mucus, whereas a chesty cough (wet cough) produces mucous or sputum to help clear the airways.

Prospan Sugar Free Cough Syrup contains Ivy leaf dry extract, a herbal medication. Ivy leaf dry extract acts as a mucolytic agent that works by thinning and loosening phlegm or mucus in the lungs, windpipe and nasal passage, thereby helping to cough out easily.

Disease/Condition Glossary

Cough: Coughing is a body’s way of clearing irritants (allergens) from airways and preventing infection. The cough may be dry or productive. A tickly cough or dry cough produces no harsh or thick mucus, whereas a productive cough or wet cough brings up sputum (phlegm, mucus and other matter) from the lungs. Cough is commonly caused as a response to allergy or viral infection but coughing up mucus is possibly an indication of infection in the respiratory tract.
