Ushnol Cough Syrup

Syrup

Symptomatic relief of cough associated with common cold, throat irritation or upper respiratory tract infections (dry or productive cough depending on formulation).

Cough syrups typically work by suppressing the cough reflex (antitussives), loosening and thinning mucus (expectorants/mucolytics), and/or reducing allergy-related irritation (antihistamines). The exact mechanism depends on the active ingredients in the formulation.

Shake well before use. Measure the dose with a cup/spoon and take by mouth as directed by a doctor. Can be taken with or without food; taking after food may reduce gastric discomfort. Do not exceed the recommended dose, and avoid using multiple cough/cold products together unless advised.

Drowsiness, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, stomach upset, dry mouth, constipation, headache

Formulation-specific precautions apply. May cause drowsiness—avoid driving/operating machinery if affected. Use with caution in children, elderly, asthma/COPD, liver disease, kidney disease, glaucoma, enlarged prostate/urinary retention. Do not use longer than advised; seek medical care if cough persists >7 days, is recurrent, or is accompanied by high fever, breathing difficulty, chest pain, blood in sputum. Not recommended in pregnancy/breastfeeding unless prescribed (depends on ingredients).

May interact with alcohol and other CNS depressants (sedatives, sleep medicines, opioids), monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) and some antidepressants (for dextromethorphan-containing products), antihistamines/anticholinergics, and other cough/cold combinations; exact interactions depend on composition.
