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.

Diet & Lifestyle Advise

  • Drink plenty of fluids every day. It helps thin mucus and makes coughing easier.

  • Consume complex carbohydrates such as lentils, beans, barley, oats, quinoa, bran, peas, and potatoes with skin.

  • Eat potassium-rich foods like bananas, asparagus, oranges, potatoes, avocados, dark leafy greens, and beetroots because potassium is important for lung function and a potassium deficiency can cause breathing problems.

  • Consume protein-rich foods like meat, fish (especially salmon, sardines, and mackerel), eggs, and poultry.

  • Learning breathing exercises will assist you in moving more air into and out of your lungs.
